Description

KEY MESSAGE:
•  Statistical significance testing alone is not the most adequate manner to evaluate if there is indeed a clinically relevant effect
•  Effect sizes should be added to significance testing
•  Effect sizes facilitate the decision whether a clinically relevant effect is found, helps determining the sample size for future studies, and facilitates comparison between scientific studies
