p values and F2

Post by hdobson »

Dear all

I was reading that we shouldn't just trust p values for statistical significance (p<=0.05), we should also look at the F2 effects to see if those statistically significant relationships are meaningful.

I understand that.

But does this work the other way round? If the F2 effects are meaningful but p is >0.05 can we say that the p value does not matter in this instance?

I'd be interested in your thoughts.

Best wishes
Howard
