Not exactly a "technical" question as much as a mathematical or formatting one.
I've read many publications where statistical results are provided in figures or tables. Seldom have I seen the use of p-values to explain statistical significance, instead standard errors or t-values are shown.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't p-values just as mathematically relevant as either?
Is it because p-values are just easier to read? People need to prove they are smart or something?
It's odd, in all my work, I make my output have p-values to interpret the results, then for presentation I replace them with standard errors or t-values only because all the other publications and all my peers do it.
