Pseudoreplication: Don’t Fall For This Simple Statistical Mistake

Posted from Bitesize Bio 3 days ago
Cell Biology : Cell Biology Blogs

Now we come to the third part of our trifecta; in the last two posts I have gone over p-values and how they determine significance in null hypothesis testing, and we talked about degrees of freedom and their effect on the p-value. Finally, we come to pseudoreplication: where it can all go terribly w... (original story)
