Statistical validation of results, as Shaffer described it, simply involves testing the null hypothesis: that the pattern you detect in your data occurs at random. If you can reject the null hypothesis—and science and medicine have settled on rejecting it when there's only a five percent or less chance that it occurred at random—then you accept that your actual finding is significant.
The problem now is that we're rapidly expanding our ability to do tests. Various speakers pointed to data sources as diverse as gene expression chips and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, which provide tens of thousands of individual data points to analyze. At the same time, the growth of computing power has meant that we can ask many questions of these large data sets at once, and each one of these tests increases the prospects than an error will occur in a study; as Shaffer put it, "every decision increases your error prospects." She pointed out that dividing data into subgroups, which can often identify susceptible subpopulations, is also a decision, and increases the chances of a spurious error. Smaller populations are also more prone to random associations.
In the end, Young noted, by the time you reach 61 tests, there's a 95 percent chance that you'll get a significant result at random. And, let's face it—researchers want to see a significant result, so there's a strong, unintentional bias towards trying different tests until something pops out.
Young went on to describe a study, published in JAMA, that was a multiple testing train wreck: exposures to 275 chemicals were considered, 32 health outcomes were tracked, and 10 demographic variables were used as controls. That was about 8,800 different tests, and as many as 9 million ways of looking at the data once the demographics were considered.
GeoSols Consulting on 07 Jan 16Generally, factors like crossing of earth lines, running underground water are primarily responsible for such earth vibration. When these vibrations become unusually high, it becomes harmful for the zone dwellers. It causes depression, stress and at times diseases as deadly as cancer. However you can easily identify the stress by the following tips - 1. Are you facing any problem like sudden muscular pain, sudden signs of aging, sleepless nights, miscarriages that has occurred shortly after your relocation to new house? 2. Did you notice something unusual in your pets or is your infant is behaving in a strange manner? 3. Are you feeling better when you are out for your regular shopping? If your answer is YES, GS may be a reason for all the problems you are facing in recent times. Some are of the opinion that dowsing wand can help it identify the accurate spot of GS. And yes, you too can do that. But for that, you need to identify the specific type of stress your house is going through. I guess that's not a very easy job, hence professional guidance is the best way to figure out the geopathic stress.
