I have always been careless about the use of the terms "significance level" and "confidence level", in the sense of whether I say I am using a 5% significance level or a 5% confidence level in a statistical test. I would use either one in conversation to mean that if the test were repeated 100 times, my best estimate would be that the test would wrongly reject the null hypothesis 5 times even if the null hypothesis were true. (On the other hand, a 95% confidence interval would be one which we'd expect to contain the true level with probability .95.) I see, though, that web definitions always would have me say that I reject the null at the 5% significance level or with a 95% confidence level. Dismayed, I tried looking up economics articles to see if my usage was entirely idiosyncratic. I found that I was half wrong. Searching over the American Economic Review for 1980-2003 for "5-percent confidence level" and similar terms, I found: 2 cases of 95-percent significance level
27 cases of 5% significance level 4 cases of 10% confidence level
6 cases of 90% confidence level Thus, the web definition is what economists use about 97% of the time for significance level, and about 60% of the time for confidence level. Moreover, most economists use "significance level" for tests, not "confidence level".
The confidence level is 90% the sample size is n=112 and -o =17.
To 'find the social significants' of something what that means is that what really is important about that certain something. i think you will find that i asked what soc ial significance is not how to find it ! social significance is about how an issue for example is significant in todays society ! its the significance it has on a social society .

The standard score associated with a given degree of confidence or level of significance.
The connotation 'statistical significance' takes into account the number of samples as well level of confidence in making a conclusion based on these samples. The level of confidence is typically denoted as 1-alpha (1 minus alpha), where alpha is basically the chance that the reported conclusion will incorrect. The most popular level of confidence is 95%, which coincides with a 5% alpha, meaning that when one makes a conclusion based on a particular sample, there is a 5% chance of a false or incorrect conclusion.
Confidence level 99%, and alpha = 1%.
95% confidence level is most popular
