I loved the splash screen at 3:40. Conflating the two different meanings of hypothesis is one of my pet peeves and something that I try to hit hard with my intro to bio students.
YES! This is why being a teacher makes my SciComm better - I wrote the script for this video in the summer of 2020, then I taught p-values to my Intro Bio students in the fall (20) and spring semesters (21) and both semesters, students conflated the null/alt. hypothesis with the scientific hypothesis. So I added that part into the script! Glad it hits the same points you find you need to address in your classes.
Awwwsome🤩🤩🤩 Got it after going through astronomical number of articles and videos. Just on simple question. I mean assuming null hypothesis is true and getting extremely smaller p value is not by chance but what if it's by chance and by luck we got that p value and we rejected null? How to deal with that failed research????
It happens!! XKCD has a good comic about that: xkcd.com/882/ How do scientists deal with it? Replicates! Others validate the results! Never decide that a conclusion is true based on a single experiment. "Scientific facts" are supported by lots and lots of experiments that generally agree with each other, knowing that sometimes by random chance we'll get data that don't support the "true" conclusion.
