Primes

• Statistical Power
  • Listed in the references but not attached to a specific claim.
• Statistical Significance (p-Value)
  • The contemporary notion combines Fisher's continuous-evidence interpretation with Neyman-Pearson's dichotomous-decision framework into a hybrid that has been the subject of extensive methodological debate for nearly a century
• Type I & Type II Errors
  • Fisher's significance testing framework focused on evidence-against-null (p-values) and was critical of the Neyman-Pearson decision-theoretic formulation; the hybrid NHST tradition uses α controls while often ignoring β

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 3 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
