P-Value Calculator (Hypothesis Significance)

Computes statistical p-values to determine significance against threshold alpha levels (α = 0.05, 0.01).

Significance Level (α):
Statistical Significance

P-Value from Z-Score Calculator

Convert standardized test statistics into exact two-tailed and one-tailed p-values.

Two-Tailed P-Value: P(|Z| ≥ 2.15)
p = 0.0316
Statistically Significant at α = 0.05 (p < 0.05)
Left-Tail P(Z ≤ z)0.984298.42%
Right-Tail P(Z ≥ z)0.01581.58%

What is a P-Value?

A p-value is the probability of obtaining test results at least as extreme as the observed results, assuming that the null hypothesis is true.

Formula & Step-by-Step Calculation

If p ≤ α ⟹ Reject H₀; If p > α ⟹ Fail to Reject H₀

Standard significance testing threshold.

Worked Step-by-Step Examples

Example 1

A test yields z = 2.15. Find two-tailed p-value.

Solution: p = 0.0316 (Statistically Significant at α = 0.05)
• 2 × (1 - NormalCDF(2.15)) = 2 × 0.0158 = 0.0316

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does a small p-value prove the alternative hypothesis?

No, it only provides statistical evidence against the null hypothesis.
