Describe the difference between program and statistical significance

What will be an ideal response?


Program significance measures the meaningfulness of a program regardless of statistical significance, which is determined by statistical testing. If a sample size is very large, it is much easier to demonstrate statistical significance but not see much practical benefit. By the same token, results may be practically very important or significant, and not reach a pre-set level of statistical significance.
