I’m currently a second year masters student (not in statistics) and am in the field of sports science/performance. I’ve started to hear quite a bit about MBI in the last year or so as it pertains to my field. I think it’s an interesting concept and differentiating between statistical/clinical and practical significance could certainly be useful in some contexts.

Given I’m not in a statistics program, I’d love to hear everyone’s professional opinion and critiques and maybe some examples of how you personally see it as useful or not.

Hopefully this opens some discussion around it as it’s been heavily criticized to my knowledge and I’m curious what y’all think.
