Re: [R] p values from GLM

2016-04-03 Thread John Maindonald
How small does a p-value need to be to warrant attention, however?

Witness Fisher’s comment that:
“. . . we may, if we prefer it, draw the line at one in fifty (the 2 per cent 
point), or one in a hundred (the 1 per cent point). Personally, the writer 
prefers to set a low standard of significance at the 5 per cent point, and 
ignore entirely all results which fail to reach this level. A scientific fact 
should be regarded as experimentally established only if a properly designed 
experiment rarely fails to give this level of significance.”
[Fisher RA (1926), “The Arrangement of Field Experiments,” Journal of the 
Ministry of Agriculture of Great Britain, 33, 503-513.]

See the selection of Fisher quotes at http://www.jerrydallal.com/lhsp/p05.htm .

In contexts where a p <= 0.05 becomes more likely under the NULL (not the case 
if the experiment might just as well have been a random number generator), 
small P-values shift the weight of evidence.  An alternative that is apriori 
highly unlikely takes a lot of shifting.

This paper repeats the common place statement that a small p-value does not 
necessarily indicate an important finding. Agreed, but maybe I overlooked 
examples of important findings with large p-values.
If there are some, I would be happy to get to know some of them. Otherwise a 
small p-value is no guarantee of importance, but a prerequisite.

This is getting seriously off-topic, but lots of underdimensioned studies would 
qualify. However, the effects found are almost indistiguishable from Type I 
errors. Later, larger, studies would be required to confirm that the effect is 
really there. (Like, halving or doubling the risk of some cancer is hardly 
unimportant, but knowing that that is often the detection limit in 
medium-scaled epidemiological studies may make you a bit jaded when hearing 
such reports.)

Re: [R] p values from GLM

2016-04-02 Thread Michael Artz
Maybe it's not the article itself for sale.  Sometimes a company will
charge a fee to have access to its knowledge base.  Not because it owns all
of the content, but because the articles, publications, etc have been
tracked down and centralized.  This is also the whole idea behind paying a
company a few dollars to do a semi-extensive background check.

They're just statistics.  How could it hurt to look at them?

Like Rolf, I thought that this utterance on April 1 deserved fortune enshrinement. It 
reminded me of one of my favorite articles: "P-Values are Random Variables".

Unfortunately a legal copy of that paper is still behind a corporate firewall for which 
you would need to fork over USD 50.00, but a google search for "P-Values are Random 
Variables The American Statistician" should yield options for the less squeamish. 
(My copy was obtained when I did have legal access.)



  How much did money or do the authors of that paper receive in 
royalties?



  That's important, because the purpose of US copyright law is, "To 
promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited 
Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective 
Writings and Discoveries."  (E.g., Wikipedia, "Copyright law of the 
United States", 
"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright_law_of_the_United_States;) Very 
few if any refereed academic papers are written for financial gain:  
Lawrence Lessig said that congressional representatives rarely hear 
counterarguments to the garbage they get from corporate lobbyists.  The 
Trans Pacific Partnership (TPP, and probably also the Transatlantic 
Trade and Investment Partnership) will strengthen the rights of 
corporations in this area.  If you think that will limit the progress of 
science and the useful arts, as I do, I suggest you contact your elected 
representatives and tell them so -- if you are a citizen of a country 
with elected representatives.  I think we should also ask the American 
Statistical Association how much money they make from that and what it 
would take to put all that material in the public domain.  I think 
professional organizations should come out strongly against these 
provisions of US copyright law and trade agreements that strengthen 
rather than weaken the stranglehold that major corporations have on the 
intellectual heritage of humanity.



  This relates to R, because R is based on an assumption that the 
dissemination of publications, articles and software, for which the 
authors are not remunerated from copyright proceeds should not be 
limited by pre-internet rules that stifle unnecessarily the distribution 
of knowledge and with it improvements in productivity and economic growth.

Like Rolf, I thought that this utterance on April 1 deserved fortune 
enshrinement. It reminded me of one of my favorite articles: "P-Values are

Unfortunately a legal copy of that paper is still behind a corporate firewall

They're just statistics.  How could it hurt to look at them?

Doesn't summary(fitwean) give a matrix? Then it's
colnames(summary(fitwean)$coefficients) you want, not names(fitwean).

P.S. If you had given a reproducible example, I'd try it myself.

[R] p values from GLM

2016-04-01 Thread John Sorkin
How can I get the p values from a glm ? I want to get the p values so I can add 
them to a custom report
 
 
 fitwean<- glm(data[,"JWean"]~data[,"Group"],data=data,family=binomial(link 
="logit"))
 summary(fitwean) # This lists the coefficeints, SEs, z and p 
values, but I can't isolate the pvalues.
 names(summary(fitwean))  # I see the coefficients, but not the p values
 names(fitmens)  # p values are not found here.
 
Thank you!
