Bjørn Sætrevik<p>Imagine you preregistered study with tests A and B for a directed hypothesis H, but did not specify one-tailed or two-tailed testing. Test A is in the predicted direction, but p = between .05 and .09. Test B is in the non-predicted direction, but p &lt; .05. How do you report results?</p><p><a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/PreRegistration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PreRegistration</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/OpenScience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenScience</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/NHST" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NHST</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/SignificanceTesting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SignificanceTesting</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/pValue" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>pValue</span></a></p>
katch wreck<p>`Intuitively, if the restricted <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/estimator" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>estimator</span></a> is near the maximum of the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/likelihood" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>likelihood</span></a> function, the score should not differ from zero by more than sampling error. While the finite sample <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/distributions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>distributions</span></a> of score tests are generally unknown, they have an <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/asymptotic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>asymptotic</span></a> χ2-distribution under the null <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/hypothesis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>hypothesis</span></a> as first proved by C.
