Rewriting results sections in the language of evidence

Stefanie Muff et al.

Summary: Despite criticism, the black-or-white null-hypothesis significance testing with an arbitrary P-value cutoff remains the standard way to report scientific findings. However, a lack of knowledge about suitable alternatives hampers progress. This study suggests using a language of evidence as a simpler and more intuitive alternative, which allows for a more nuanced approach in communicating scientific findings.

Household Coping Strategies During the COVID-19 Pandemic in Chile

Julieta Palma et al.

Summary: Chile was severely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, with social distancing measures impacting the economy. This study analyzes the financial strategies adopted by Chilean households during the early months of the pandemic, showing that many households experienced a drop in income and resorted to income-generating and expenditure-minimizing strategies.
