(noun) a liquid or semi-liquid edible dressing or condiment served as an accompaniment to or an ingredient in a meat, dessert, or other food: pizza sauce, steak sauce, cranberry sauce, chocolate sauce, etc., or (verb) to add said sauce to something.
All hypothesis tests ultimately use a p-value to weigh the strength of the evidence (what the data are telling you about the population). The p-value is a number between 0 and 1 and interpreted in the following way: A small p-value (typically â¤ 0.05) indicates strong evidence against the null hypothesis, so you reject the null hypothesis.
The P-value is the observed significance level of the test. If the observed significance level is less than the chosen significance level (alpha), then the researcher should reject the null hypothesis in favor of the alternative. Otherwise, there is not enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.
