How To Calculate P Value In Excel

In this Excel tutorial you will teach yourself how to calculate p value in Excel.

P-value is a probability that the given result is due to chance.

The correct interpretation of the statistical significance score P tells about the probability of getting the difference we see in our study, or even greater if the null hypothesis is actually true.

P value of exam score is exactly 0.012304189.

You got also other values like Standard Error and Anova test.

How to interpret p value?

See the p value:

  • Significant: <=0.05
  • Marginally significant: <=0.1
  • Insignificant: >0.1

In my example it is significant because 0.012304189 is less than 0.05. It was worth to study hard to get better exam score.
