may sing to the tune of Queen's "We Will Rock You"
If the null is really true and we get a sample
That causes us to reject the null,
That’s a Type I Error
Type I, Type I Error
Type I, Type I Error
Repeat

Statistically significant
Happens when your observed
Is so far away
Far away from expected
There’s not really a way
That’s the sample I got
Happened because
Of chance, because of chance
Sampling variability
Sampling variability
Happens because you got
Different data than me
Oh if my observed sample’s
In the rejection region
Then the data that I got’s
Statistically significant

If the p-value is low
If the p-value is low
The null hypothesis has to go
If the p-value is low
If the p-value is low
The null hypothesis has to go

Do you remember when we used to sing…
The p-value is the probability
Of getting this sample
Or something more extreme
If the null is true
The p-value is the probability
Of getting this sample
Or something more extreme
If the null is true
