Nevertheless, no significant relationship emerged between perceived cooperative relations and sociability, whereas the correlation with morality was only marginally significant.
Excerpts
The interaction of age and type of task was only marginally significant (with means of 2,074, 985, and 950 ms in young and 2,507, 1,472, and 1,565 ms in old for ventral, mixed, and dorsal tasks respectively), F (2, 124) = 2.56, p = 0.08. 3.16.3 Imagery error rates Old participants made overall more errors than the young (with means of 18% and of 15%, respectively), F (1, 62) = 7.29, p = 0.009.
Another lesson commented upon by the designers of MTG is that not every detail will matter to every user, but the most minor detail may be significant to some.
(1) The relatively small sample size may have limited statistical power and increased the risk of Type II errors, particularly for marginally significant results like attention metrics.
The regression model predicting objective performance (Δ%) from pre-competition perceptual variables was highly significant ( R 2 = 0.760).
At the mid-test (end of 5-week exercise intervention), a highly significant difference was found in the working memory function between the experimental and control groups of elementary students with Chinese language learning difficulties [ F (1, 89) = 34.89, p = 0.000<0.01], indicating that the 5-week exercise intervention positively impacted the working memory function o
There was a small, marginally significant improvement in ADHD symptoms (SMD = −0.43, 95% CI: −0.89 to 0.02; I 2 = 6%).
(2017) who reported a trend in this direction; however, based on their conservative Bonferroni-adjusted alpha ( p < 0.006), their model only approached significance.
In contrast our theoretical framework argues that these highly significant negative interaction terms confirm the moderating role of land transfer in physically attenuating the fragmentation and depression relationship by restoring a sense of environmental control and perceived autonomy ( Ahmed et al., 2021 ).
In our study, women tended to be more likely than men to report increases in extreme weather and exhibited higher environmental awareness, although these differences are only weakly significant.
A priori power analysis using G*Power 21 determined that N = 70 would provide 80% power (1- β = 0.80) to detect practically significant effect sizes 38, a figure that also satisfies the central limit theorem for normality ( Bagot et al., 2015 ).
Moreover, a marginally significant effect emerged for IC errors, with the SLD-Dys group tending to commit more IC errors compared to the TD group.
This metric provides a cautious, Bayesian interpretation of p -values, assisting researchers in avoiding the overstatement of marginally significant results.
Conversely, assessments of Subjective Task Value showed a relatively even distribution with a favorable trend, with option seven being the most frequently chosen. 4.
The effect size (f 2 = 0.28) indicates a medium to large effect, suggesting that talent ecosystem characteristics have a practically significant impact on green innovation capability.
The difference in impression [ t (26) = 2.23, p = 0.08, 95% CI (0.08, 1.97)] and aesthetic pleasantness [ t (26) = 2.04, p = 0.08, 95% CI (0.00, 1.39)] approached marginal significance.
Consequently, regarding shooting performance, while descriptive patterns and post-hoc comparisons indicated within-group improvements and a nominally significant between-group difference at post-test, these findings lack robust statistical support from the overall interaction effect and must be interpreted with caution.
3.5 CSIS After 12 weeks, in the assessment of sensory integration ability, repeated measures ANOVA revealed that the time × group interaction for vestibular perception ( F = 7.751, p = 0.001, η 2 p = 0.437) and learning ability ( F = 6.537, p = 0.013, η 2 p = 0.395) were both highly significant.
Furthermore, the white lie cognition score of children with intellectual disability ( M = 0.58, SD = 0.11) was higher than that of children with autism spectrum disorder ( M = 0.25, SD = 0.12), a difference that was marginally significant [* p * = 0.056, 95% CI (-.66, .008)].
Education and income were not significant in either region, whereas age and gender were weakly significant only in the megacity region.
The results showed that Box’s M test was significant ( p < 0.05) and that Levene’s test yielded partially significant results.
To manage various loneliness scales in a narrative review while preserving comparability without conducting a meta-analysis, we suggest three steps: Step 1: Categorize the loneliness outcome of each study as either overall or emotional/social (if DJGLS is used) and as direct or indirect wording ( Russell, 1996 ); Step 2: Standardize the analysis by indicating the direction of change, assessing if the change is clinically or practically significant as defined by the authors, and determining if the effects last at follow-up (≥3 months); Step 3: Include a sensitivity narrative highlighting that ultra-short measures (1–3 items) have less detail for testing mechanisms and are more prone to wording effects, according to national measurement guidance ( Office for National Statistics, 2018 ).
Although some effects were reduced to marginal significance under the multilevel specification, the overall pattern of results remained consistent with the proposed theoretical framework.
(2019) finding that referring to p -values between 0.05 and 0.10 as marginally significant is a deeply entrenched and accepted convention across top-tier social science journals.
Epidemiological data from the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Global Burden of Disease Study indicate an important trend: although age-standardized incidence and mortality rates of stroke have shown a moderate decline, the absolute number of stroke cases among older adults worldwide has increased markedly because of the rapid growth of the aging population ( Torres-Roman et al., 2025 ).
