Thus, the reduced model is preferable in terms of interpretation.
Therefore, we conclude that our account is preferable to the risk-aversion interpretation of our results.
We agree with much of the literature that, in terms of interpretation, RR and DIF are preferable to OR.
It seemed that the minimum misclassification ratio corresponded to 2 LVs, meaning that a relatively simple classification model was obtained, that is, a model based on few latent variables, which was preferable in terms of both model interpretation and stability.
Although both readers were experienced radiologists, prospective interpretation during data collection would have been preferable, but was unfortunately not possible due to organizational issues.
He furthermore states that "a policy of not making adjustment for multiple comparisons is preferable because it will lead to fewer errors of interpretation when the data under evaluation are not random numbers but actual observations on nature".
Nonlinearity could be handled by transforming one or more of the variables (see above), but it may be preferable to use the ANOVA analysis in this case if it makes the interpretation simpler.
Although a complete dataset is preferable, the missing data in our study did not appear to be problematic for accurate interpretation of results.
Rothman posits it might be preferable to not adjust for multiple comparisons "because it will lead to fewer errors of interpretation when the data under evaluation are not random numbers but actual observations in nature" [ 48].
These recommendations indicate that: 1) CI for effect sizes are preferable to p-values, 2) inferences drawn by comparing p-values are dubious, and 3) interpretation of a lack of significance as evidence of no effect is usually incorrect.
