Illusion of the "p-value" theory in Ayurveda research: A need for perceptible alternative.

Abstract

Reporting and interpretation of results of classical statistical tests is widespread among applied researchers, most of whom erroneously believe that such tests are prescribed by a single coherent theory of statistical inference. This is not the case, classical statistical testing is a hybrid of the two different approaches formulated by Fisher on the one hand and Jerzy Neyman and Egon Pearson on the other.[1,2]
