International Committee Against the Misuse of Statistical Significance

The International Committee Against the Misuse of Statistical Significance (ICAMSS) is established with the aim of educating the medical community on the proper use of statistical testing in public health. Such a task is particularly urgent in light of the widespread and dangerous misinterpretation of statistical significance. ICAMSS was co-founded by Alessandro Rovetta [1], Mohammad Ali Mansournia [2], and Alessandro Vitale [3]. 1. Senior Researcher at the R&C Research group.
