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.

What is the difference between clinical significance and statistical significance?
look for a paper being published in "The Oncologist" later this year (2008)
What is the statistical study of the relationship between two sets of data?
Regression.
What statement about the relationship between statistical power and statistical probability is true?
They are both concepts of a branch of mathematics that is called statistics.
What does the acronym ANOVA stand for?
The abbreviation ANOVA stands for analysis of variance. It is used for carrying out comparative analysis of the statistical methods to determine if there is any relationship between data points.
What is the relationship between Confidence Interval and decreased Standard Deviation?
There is absolutely no relationship to what you've asked. I'm pretty sure you simply framed the question in the wrong way, but to literally answer your question... none. Zero relationship. There's no such thing. There is however a relationship between standard deviation and a CI, but a CI can in no shape way or form influence a standard deviation.

What is Co-relational statistical procedure?
A Co-relational statistical procedure is a technique used to know the relationship between two variables or measures the closeness of two statistical data. A statistical graph is the best representation of it.
Is there a relationship between dynamics and statistics?
There is a relationship between thermodynamics and statistics. For more detail than you can probably handle, check out the book Statistical Thermodynamics by McQuarrie.
Find the critical Zc that corresponds to a 98 confidence level?
The 98 percent confidence level is commonly used in statistical tests. The critical Zc refers to the amount of relation between to factors.
Which race of men have the longest penis?
There is no statistical relationship between penis length and race.
What is the difference between statistical significance versus practical significance?
Statistical significance means that you are sure that the statistic is reliable. It is very possible that whatever you conclusion or finding is, it may not be important or it not have any decision-making utility. For example, my diet program has a 1 oz weight loss per month and I can show that is statistically significant. Do you really want a diet like that? It is not practically significant
What is non-directional research hypothesis?
A non-directional research hypothesis is a kind of hypothesis that is used in testing statistical significance. It states that there is no difference between variables.
What does correlation tell us?
Correlation is a statistical technique that is used to measure and describe the strength and direction of the relationship between two variables.
