| Aug 18, 2023 at 7:10 | comment | added | Ute | Welcome to cv, Ankita! We would not call a confidence interval "significant" - did you read this somewhere? The 95% or 80% or whatever are "confidence levels". | |
| Aug 18, 2023 at 7:10 | comment | added | Henry | You should choose your level of significance $\alpha$ before doing the test. If $\alpha$ is smaller then it is less likely to get a significant result from the test (especially if the null hypothesis is correct - desirable) and the associated $1-\alpha$ confidence interval is wider making it more likely the confidence interval will cover the true value. The power of the test to reject the null hypothesis when a given alternative hypothesis is correct will also get smaller, though is also affected by other factors such as design of the test and the sample size. | |
