Detailed Description¶

class sam::QuestionableRounding;

QuestionableRounding Hacking Strategy

Questionable rounding strategy mimics the behavior of a researcher who might hack its way to significance by aggressively rounding the pvalue and ignoring everything else.

Public Functions Documentation¶

function QuestionableRounding¶

QuestionableRounding() =default

function QuestionableRounding¶

inline explicit QuestionableRounding(
    const Parameters & p
)

function perform¶

virtual void perform(
    Experiment * experiment
) override

Applies the hacking method on the Experiment.

Parameters:

experiment A pointer to an Experiment.

Reimplements: sam::HackingStrategy::perform

Checking whether the outcome is significant, if not, we check whether it's close enough to be a hacked, if so, we either set the pvalue to alpha or the difference between pvalue and threshold
