M. Sylvester asked:
what is the rationale for the .05 and .01 level of signifance as
acceptable? who came up with this Eurocentric concept anyway? And how

Read this paper and find out about Pearson, Galton Cramer and company:
Cowles, M., & Davis, C. (1982). On the origins of the .05 level of
significance. /American Psychologist, 37,/ 553-558.
