Statistical Significance and Practical Significance
The Gengene Research Group has developed a procedure designed to increase the likelihood that a baby will be born a girl. In a clinical trial of their procedure, 112 girls were born to 200 different couples. If the method has no effect, there is about a 4% chance that such extreme results would occur. Does the procedure appear to have statistical significance? Is the procedure of any practical significance?
