Abstract:
Due to increasing rate of research articles getting published in recent times, medical science is evolving very fast. Open access policies of the journals make information easily available to the stakeholders for building future research proposal. Blindly having faith in whatever is published in the literature is detrimental for science; however, it is hard to find out the correctness of the data analysis.

Decision Making: P-value Method
First, a specific claim about the population parameter is proposed. The claim is based on the research question and is stated in a simple form. Further, an opposing statement to the claim is also stated. These statements can act as null and alternative hypotheses: a null hypothesis would be a neutral statement while the alternative hypothesis can...
P-value
P-value stands for the probability value. P-value is the probability that, if the null hypothesis is true, the results from another randomly selected sample will be as extreme or more extreme as the results obtained from the given sample.
A large P-value calculated from the data indicates to not reject the null hypothesis. But a higher P-value does not mean that the null hypothesis is true. The smaller the P-value, the more...
