Clinical Significance Statistical significance focuses on the null value of the effect. More important is clinical significance defined by the smallest clinically beneficial and harmful values of the effect. These values are usually equal and opposite in sign.
For example, a treatment might significantly change depressive symptoms (statistical significance), the change could be a large decrease in depressive symptoms (practical significance-effect size), and 40% of the patients no longer met the diagnostic criteria for depression (clinical significance).he Edwards-Nunnally method of calculating clinical significance is a more stringent alternative to the Jacobson-Truax method. Reliability scores are used to bring the pre-test scores closer to the mean, and then a confidence interval is developed for this adjusted pre-test score.
