If researchers find a statistically significant result, they would be likely to find the same result if they replicated the study again
Indicate whether this statement is true or false.
Answer: True
Rationale: Statistical significance implies that an observed difference between groups was unlikely to have occurred by random chance. Therefore, the same effect should almost always occur again if the experiment is replicated. In contrast, if an effect is not statistically significant, it may not be able to be replicated.
