Another way to say it would be how important is it to be so precice to the n'th degree when what you are doing is not that complicated.
Example:
Add in bowl and mix
- one cup flour
- two eggs
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- milk (267.845 milliliters)
The milk is past insignificant because it doesnt matter that you measure that milk so exact if you are using a generic 'egg' and 'cup of flour' etc.

The Heisenberg uncertainty principle, which is very important at the subatomic level, has no affect on my daily life.
What does it mean for an experimental result to show significance?
For data to show significance, the resulting percentage must be less than the chosen level of significance.The term "significance" links to statistics. A scientist sets forth two hypotheses: the null hypothesis that no change or effect is present, and the alternative hypothesis that a change or effect has occurred. When the data is quantitative, the conclusion is not black-and-white. Probability can push the results one way or the other and the results will vary each time the same exact experiment is carried out.One way is to take the average results of many, many repetitions of the same experiment. Another is to use a statistical test like the chi-squared. The scientist chooses a "good enough" level, the level of significance, say 5% or (if he's very picky and demanding) 1%. The lower the level of significance, the more precision and accuracy is being demanded. For example, picking 100% is ridiculous because while the scientist can be 100% statistically confident, this demonstrates absolutely no precision or accuracy. The test then calculates a percentage from the data. If the percentage is lower than the level of significance, say 2.8% compared to the chosen 5%, this indicates a high certainty and the null hypothesis is rejected. (If the percentage is higher, say 13% compared to the 5%, neither the null nor the alternative can be rejected nor accepted- simply put, no conclusion can be drawn.)

How can you explain the significance level of at statistics?
Significance Level (Alpha Level): If the level is set a .05, it means the statistician is acknowledging that there is a 5% chance the results of the findings will lead them to an incorrect conclusion.
Are all scientific hypotheses tested at 1 level of significance?
No, not all scientific hypotheses which are tested at level 1 are of significance.
What and who determines the alpha level in statistics?
Before conducting a significance test, the statistician will choose an alpha level. Depending upon the severity of having type I or type II error, the statistician will make the alpha level higher or lower. Generally in courts, the alpha level is .05. The other common alpha levels for significance tests are .10 and .01.
What factor can a researcher control that will reduce the type 1 error?
The significance level can be reduced.
The 5 percent level of significance and 1 percent level are the minimum level for certain kinds of research Anyone know which ones?
I think it is hypothesis testing
What is another name for the probability of observing a sample value at least as extreme as a given on under a null hypothesis?
The significance level of the observation - under the null hypothesis. The significance level of the observation - under the null hypothesis. The significance level of the observation - under the null hypothesis. The significance level of the observation - under the null hypothesis.

What is the probability of making type 1 error when null hypothesis is true?
It is the same as the significance level of the test - often 5%.

Why is the level of significance always small?
The significance level is always small because significance levels tell you if you can reject the null-hypothesis or if you cannot reject the null-hypothesis in a hypothesis test. The thought behind this is that if your p-value, or the probability of getting a value at least as extreme as the one observed, is smaller than the significance level, then the null hypothesis can be rejected. If the significance level was larger, then statisticians would reject the accuracy of hypotheses without proper reason.
