Journal ArticleDOI

The earth is flat (p < 0.05): significance thresholds and the crisis of unreplicable research

TL;DR: The widespread use of ‘statistical significance’ as a license for making a claim of a scientific finding leads to considerable distortion of the scientific process, and potential arguments against removing significance thresholds are discussed.
Book

Bayesian Data Analysis in Ecology Using Linear Models with R, BUGS, and Stan : Including Comparisons to Frequentist Statistics

TL;DR: This book provides the theoretical background in an easy-to-understand approach, encouraging readers to examine the processes that generated their data, and presents problems and solutions that are most often applicable to other data and questions, making it an invaluable resource for analyzing a variety of data types.
Journal ArticleDOI

A new method to determine bird and bat fatality at wind energy turbines from carcass searches

TL;DR: In this article, a new formula was developed to determine the detection probability of birds or bats that are killed at wind turbines and which can estimate the number of fatalities from the number found.
Journal ArticleDOI

Manipulating the Alpha Level Cannot Cure Significance Testing

David Trafimow, +60 more
TL;DR: It is argued that making accept/reject decisions on scientific hypotheses, including a recent call for changing the canonical alpha level from p =0.05 to p = 0.005, is deleterious for the finding of new discoveries and the progress of science.
Journal ArticleDOI

Timing of migration and residence areas during the non‐breeding period of barn swallows Hirundo rustica in relation to sex and population

TL;DR: This study provides new information on the variance in migration phenology and the distribution of residence areas in sub-Saharan Africa in relation to sex, population and year and supports the usefulness of light-level geolocators for the study of annual routines of large samples of small birds.
