Since Basic and Applied Social Psychology (BASP) journal banned p values and significance hypothesis testing from their published papers, there have been a lot of debates and discussions around the p-value.
We will discuss the current practice and the future of hypothesis testing and specially p values. We will also have an opportunity to talk via Skype to one of the editors of BASP, Dr. David Trafimow (Department of Psychology, New Mexico State University), about his 2015 editorial regarding the banning p values and about the influence of this policy on the submissions to this journal.
RSVP before January 20, 2017. Only 25 spots are available due to limited number of seats.
