did not quite reach significanceP = .02actually significant

Pairwise comparisons showed that the number of landmark-based choices was significantly greater than that of incorrect choices, Pearson chi-square test: χ 2 (1) = 15.21, P < .0005, but did not quite reach significance compared with geometry-based choices, Pearson chi-square test: χ 2 (1) = 5.44, P = .02.

did not reach statistical significanceP = .752not close (p > 0.1)

Younger adults In total, 19 people chose the correct door based solely on the geometry of the route learned during training, whereas 21 people chose an incorrect door; this difference did not reach statistical significance at the .01 level, Pearson chi-square test: χ 2 (1) = 0.1, P = .752.
