Oct 23, 2019 at 1:30 comment added Russ Lenth I agree “credible” is more appropriate.
Oct 22, 2019 at 23:36 comment added Matt Barstead I really wish “significant” never caught on as a term. From a semantics standpoint, it is too easy to map the concept on to ideas of “importance”, “meaningful”, and other misguided ideas that shape the term’s interpretation. Maybe it is the Bayesian in me, but I find “credible” to be a less loaded and more accurate summary of most “significant” effects. After all, something that is credible is scientifically interesting and can still end up being unsupported by subsequently acquired data.
