摘要

“显著”这个词在科学论文中被广泛使用。2014年6月，在PubMed上搜索“显著”，得到了超过200万个结果!但是“significant”这个词有好几层意思，所以经常被误解。有一个简单的方法可以避免这种混淆:避免使用“显著”这个词，使用替代的措辞。(发表于2014年9月25日)引文:Advances in Regenerative Biology 2014, 1: 25155 - http://dx.doi.org/10.3402/arb.v1.25155

Opinion: Never use the word ‘significant’ in a scientific paper

The word ‘significant’ is widely used in scientific papers. A PubMed search for ‘significant’ in June 2014 yielded more than two million results! But the word ‘significant’ has several meanings, and so is often misunderstood. There is a simple way to avoid this confusion: Avoid the word ‘significant’ and use alternative wording.
