Technical Issues in the Interpretation of S-values and Their Relation to Other Information Measures

Methodology 2020-10-02 v3

Abstract

An extended technical discussion of SS-values and unconditional information can be found in Greenland, 2019. Here we briefly cover several technical topics mentioned in our main paper, Rafi & Greenland, 2020: Different units for (scaling of) the SS-value besides base-2 logs (bits); the importance of uniformity (validity) of the PP-value for interpretation of the SS-value; and the relation of the SS-value to other measures of statistical information about a test hypothesis or model.
