Understanding Statistical Testing

Statistical testing helps you know whether a difference in your data is actually meaningful — and Panoplai handles the hard part for you.

When It Appears

Stat testing runs automatically when:

  • You apply Cuts to compare segments, AND
  • You’re viewing results in table format

It flags significant differences using letter indicators to show which groups differ — so you can focus on insights, not calculations.

What Statistical Significance Tells You

  • Whether one group’s response is truly different from another
  • If that difference is statistically significant
  • What the margin of error and confidence level tell you about precision

How to Interpret Results:

  • Statistical Significance ≠ Importance
  • A result can be statistically real — but too small to act on.
  • Rule of thumb: If the difference would change your decision, it matters. If not, it’s just interesting.
  • Examples:
    • A 1% lift might be significant — but not meaningful
    • A 10% drop in satisfaction? That’s both significant and actionable

Confidence Levels (90% vs. 95%)

Your confidence level reflects how sure you are the result falls within the margin of error:
  • 95% confidence = standard in most research
  • 90% confidence = used for exploratory or directional analysis
The higher the confidence interval, the more certain, or confident, you can be in the statistical significance reported.

Panoplai calculates all of this automatically — so you can trust what’s real, and act on what matters.
