Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

There is a Copernican Revolution happening in statistics. It is something that affects the interplay of science, statistics, and the kinds of storytelling they do. Professor David Trafimow is taking on the venerated null hypothesis and the p-value method of testing significance. He has gone so far, as a journal editor to ban the null hypothesis from consideration. Authors using p-value arguments are asked to revise and resubmit their work. Such as stir has been created that the Canadian Statistical Association and now the American Statistical Association have convened special meetings to come out with proclamations. Even if they support professor Trafimow, it will be many years, many changes in statistics books, and mean retraining statistics teachers. It will mean a different understanding of philosophy of science, statistical accounts, and enroll my own field, storytelling. The chapter includes a series of YouTube video interviews with Professor Trafimow.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
