Abstract
The p-value has played a pivotal role in research advances across a broad spectrum of fields over the last century; yet its ubiquity has resulted in abundant misinterpretations and misuses. After a survey of the history of the p-value and a consideration of some of its most pressing criticisms, this paper considers how the second-generation p-value (SGPV) and its properties may be a helpful answer to the problems facing today’s usage of the traditional p-value. Simulation experiments uncover tendencies in what sort of conclusions can be drawn from utilizing the nascent second-generation p-value under varied parameters. Based on the simulation results and subsequent analyses, including data visualizations and multinomial regressions, recommendations are made for experimental design regarding how to use the SGPV and under what circumstances for best results.
