Axioms for testing with data-dependent levels and e-values
Nick W. Koning
The emerging literature on hypothesis testing with data-dependent and post-hoc significance levels relies on a particular extension of the Type-I error to data-dependent levels. Ex…
The E-measure
Nick W. Koning
We introduce the E-measure: a measure-like generalization of the E-value to a class of hypotheses. Unlike classical measures, E-measures are closed under infimums instead of additi…
Equivalence testing with data-dependent and post-hoc equivalence margins
Stan Koobs, Nick W. Koning
Equivalence testing compares the hypothesis that an effect is large against the alternative that it is negligible. Here, `large' is classically expressed as being larger than…
Choosing alpha post hoc: the danger of multiple standard significance thresholds
Jesse Hemerik, Nick W Koning
A fundamental assumption of classical hypothesis testing is that the significance threshold is chosen independently from the data. The validity of confidence intervals likewis…
