How is rejecting the null hypothesis related to statistical significance?

Discussion 8

One of the most challenging things for students to understand is what it means to reject the null hypothesis. How is rejecting the null hypothesis related to statistical significance? Please use your own words (very important!) to describe what information you use to determine statistical significance, and give an example of this information (for example, how might you check to see if your oneway ANOVA is significant? How about a Two-Way ANOVA?). Once you decide that an effect is significant, for example, please indicate what that means to you IN YOUR OWN WORDS. The point of this discussion is to help you help each other learn, not to copy down a perfect answer. Finally, do you see any problems with/limitations of NHST? Why or why not?

how can we improve communications with each other in a world filled with technology that often results in physical isolation?

Discussion: As you build your human relations skills, it is very important to establish an acute sensitivity to the impact communication has on your interpersonal relationships at home and at work. Human relations communication starts with your desire to connect with another person. Sometimes, connecting can be a challenge with technologies such as email, instant messaging, text messaging, and forms of social media. These modes of technology make it difficult to read non-verbal cues. We continue to be dependent on relationships for people, processes, and technology to give us our best results.

Based on your readings this week (see Content – Week 1 – Reading and Resources), how can we improve communications with each other in a world filled with technology that often results in physical isolation? Be creative in your answer!

You may find appropriate articles at the end of each chapter, and/or identify articles through the APUS online Library. Finally, be sure that all discussions are answered in full, in order to ensure the best possible grade based on the work submitted.
