szignifikancián

Szignifikancián is a Hungarian term that translates to "significance" or "meaningfulness." In everyday Hungarian, it refers to the importance or relevance of something. This can apply to situations, events, or even abstract concepts. For instance, a person might speak of the szignifikancián of a historical event, meaning its historical weight and impact. Similarly, in a personal context, one might describe the szignifikancián of a particular memory or relationship.

Beyond its general usage, the concept of szignifikancián has a more specific application in statistical analysis, particularly within the Hungarian academic and scientific community. In this context, it directly corresponds to the English term "statistical significance." When a result is described as having szignifikancián in a study, it means that the observed effect or difference is unlikely to have occurred by random chance. Researchers typically set a significance level, often denoted by alpha (α), which represents the probability of rejecting a true null hypothesis. If the p-value of a test is less than this alpha level, the result is considered statistically significant and thus possesses szignifikancián. This indicates that the data provides sufficient evidence to conclude that an effect exists beyond what would be expected from random variation.
