Just because a difference is statistically significant, it does not necessarily mean that it is important in a theoretical, practical, or sociological sense. Statistical significance only addresses the likelihood that the observed difference is not due to chance. The interpretation of practical or theoretical importance requires additional considerations and judgments beyond statistical significance alone.
