Question

question 69 2 pts in the context of inferential statistics, which of the following values represents the highest level of statistical significance? ○ .05 ○ .001 ○ .005 ○ .01

Explanation:

In inferential statistics, the p - value (or significance level) represents the probability of obtaining the observed results (or more extreme results) if the null hypothesis is true. A smaller p - value indicates stronger evidence against the null hypothesis, meaning a higher level of statistical significance. Among the given values 0.05, 0.001, 0.005, and 0.01, we compare their magnitudes. We know that 0.001 < 0.005 < 0.01 < 0.05. So the smallest value here is 0.001, which represents the highest level of statistical significance.

Answer:

B. .001
