Dear Members,

Here am keeping my doubt in front of you. In ANOVA procedure the GLM output gives P-values up to four digit number after decimal point (Ex: 0.6562). As we have to test at 5% LoS, i.e 0.05, is the output value has to be rounded off to two digit number after decimal before testing?
For Ex. if ANOVA P-value is 0.0518, without rounding off, it is greater than 0.05. Hence Conclusion: Insignificant.
With rounding off to two digit number (0.05), It is equal to 0.05, Hence Conclusion: Significant. Which one is right. Please clarify..
