Changing/setting alpha value

Post by Martin10 »

Forgive me if this is a really dumb question but when using jamovi for t tests, how do you set/change the value of alpha? Is it set in some particular value for default? I want to set alpha = 0.05 but I don't see any option to do. Help!

hi,

so jamovi doesn't really have a concept of alpha ... it will give you p-values, and it's up to you to compare that value to the alpha value in your head.

the one exception might be the correlation matrix, where it can 'flag significant values'. ... but this is more of a guide.

cheers
