Technical Issues in the Interpretation of S-values and Their Relation to Other Information Measures

An extended technical discussion of $S$-values and unconditional information can be found in Greenland, 2019. Here we briefly cover several technical topics mentioned in our main paper, Rafi & Greenland, 2020: Different units for (scaling of) the $S$-value besides base-2 logs (bits); the importa...

Description
Summary:An extended technical discussion of $S$-values and unconditional information can be found in Greenland, 2019. Here we briefly cover several technical topics mentioned in our main paper, Rafi & Greenland, 2020: Different units for (scaling of) the $S$-value besides base-2 logs (bits); the importance of uniformity (validity) of the $P$-value for interpretation of the $S$-value; and the relation of the $S$-value to other measures of statistical information about a test hypothesis or model. : 6 pages, 18 references
