The Substitute for -Values

William M. Briggs

Journal of the American Statistical Association, 2017, vol. 112, issue 519, 897-898

Abstract: If it was not obvious before, after reading McShane and Gal, the conclusion is that p-values should be proscribed. There are no good uses for them; indeed, every use either violates frequentist theory, is fallacious, or is based on a misunderstanding. A replacement for p-values is suggested, based on predictive models.
