I've not been getting TIPS messages for a few days and I'm trying to figure out
why. I think it's because of some changes to our server so I'm seeing if this
has any effect. Otherwise I believe I need to unsubscribe and resubscribe.

I wish I had thought of that. It seems shady and I'm not sure the journal of
neuroscience would have bought the argument, but hey...

Hi
But one-tailed is used generally (figuratively?) to refer to directional
alternative hypotheses (e.g., u1 > u2), and the standard F test is
non-directional (i.e., u1>u2 OR u2>u1), even though it only involves
(literally) one-tail of the distribution. Assuming only two groups or a single

If you have any undergrads thinking about a doctorate, this piece might be food

Ever since one of my grad faculty asked me to do a one-tailed F-test, I hate
one-tailed tests.
I'm serious -- he really did. The probability of getting the F we got was .07,
and he said "Can't you do a one-tailed test?" I explained -- calmly, I believe
-- that F *is* effectively a one-tailed

Hi
I think of one-tailed (or Abelson's 1.5 tailed) tests as a kind of
quasi-bayesian adjustment to the standard non-directional test. That is, given
empirical or theoretical grounds for expecting an outcome in one direction,
then one needs less evidence from the present study before moving in
Robert Abelson, in his excellent book Statistics as Principled Argument,
advocates the use of what he calls a one-and-a-half tailed test for directional
predictions; for example, you could set the alpha level at .04 in the tail of
the predicted direction and .01 in the unpredicted direction. I a
I've often felt that in teaching statistics to psychology (and other social
science students) we do them a disservice by teaching one tailed testing. It is
a potential point of confusion that does not end up being useful if understood
properly. If I could get away with it, I'd avoid teaching it
On 6 Jan 2011, I wrote in response to Martin Bourgeois pointing out
that Bem used one-tailed tests:

Ken's comments about reflecting on student course comments as a form of
deliberate practice for improving teaching is consistent with Bill
McKeachie's findings on this practice.

you can save classroom images and post them on the class website. I also take

Hi Jim:
One problem with lots of new classroom technology was that the
equipment was being installed by staff people who do not teach.
For example, a projector would be installed in the middle of the
room and aimed forward. This meant that the screen was hung in
the middle, in front of and
