cur prev 00:1700:17, 8 September 2023 GrayBorn talk contribs m 36,902 bytes −1,089 Removed the philosopher Mayo’s quotation as only partially correct. In frequentist statistics, 95% confidence is not the same as 95% probability. A 95% confidence interval procedure does allow one to report “We are 95% confident that a specific confidence interval covers the true value”. Leading Neyman-Pearson statisticians use this formulation (see, for example, Kiefer’s 1977 JASA article where this type of formulation is used repeatedly in both conditional and unconditional contexts). undo
