I’m going to have to object. We don’t use “false positive” and “false negative” as synonyms for Type I and Type II error because they’re not the same thing. The difference is at the heart of the [misuse of p-values](https://library.mpib-berlin.mpg.de/ft/gg/GG_Null_2004.pdf) by so many researchers, and the root of the so-called replication crisis.\n
\n
Type I error is the risk of falsely concluding that the quantities being compared are meaningfully different *when they are not, in fact, meaningfully different*. Type II error is the risk of falsely concluding that they are essentially equivalent *when they are not, in fact, essentially equivalent*. Both are conditional probabilities; you can only get a Type I error when the things are, in truth, essentially equivalent and you can only get a Type II error when they are, in truth, meaningfully different. We define Type I and Type II errors as part of the design of a trial. We cannot calculate the risk of a false positive or a false negative without knowing the probability that the two things are meaningfully different.\n
\n
This may be a little easier to follow with an example:\n
\n
Let’s say we have designed an RCT to compare two treatments with Type I error of 0.05 (95% confidence) and Type II error of 0.1 (90% power). Let’s also say that this is the first large phase 3 trial of a promising drug and we know from experience with thousands of similar trials in this context that the new drug will turn out to be meaningfully different from control around 10% of the time.\n
\n
So, in 1000 trials of this sort, 100 trials will be comparing drugs which are meaningfully different and we will get a false negative for 10 of them (because we only have 90% power). 900 trials will be comparing drugs which are essentially equivalent and we will get a false positive for 45 of them (because we only have 95% confidence).\n
\n
The false positive rate is 45/135 (33.3%), nowhere near the 5% Type I error we designed the trial with.\n
\n
Statisticians are awful at naming things. But there is a reason we don’t give these error rates the nice, intuitive names you’d expect. Unfortunately we’re also awful at explaining things properly, so the misunderstanding has persisted anyway.\n
\n
This is a useful page which runs through much the same ideas as the paper linked above but in simpler terms: [The p value and the base rate fallacy](https://www.statisticsdonewrong.com/p-value.html)\n
\n
And this paper tries to rescue p-values from oblivion by calling for 0.005 to replace the usual 0.05 threshold for alpha: [Redefine statistical significance](https://www.nature.com/articles/s41562-017-0189-z.pdf).

I’m going to have to object. We don’t use “false positive” and “false negative” as synonyms for Type I and Type II error because they’re not the same thing. The difference is at the heart of the [misuse of p-values](https://library.mpib-berlin.mpg.de/ft/gg/GG_Null_2004.pdf) by so many researchers, and the root of the so-called replication crisis.\n
\n
Type I error is the risk of falsely concluding that the quantities being compared are meaningfully different *when they are not, in fact, meaningfully different*. Type II error is the risk of falsely concluding that they are essentially equivalent *when they are not, in fact, essentially equivalent*. Both are conditional probabilities; you can only get a Type I error when the things are, in truth, essentially equivalent and you can only get a Type II error when they are, in truth, meaningfully different. We define Type I and Type II errors as part of the design of a trial. We cannot calculate the risk of a false positive or a false negative without knowing the probability that the two things are meaningfully different.\n
\n
This may be a little easier to follow with an example:\n
\n
Let’s say we have designed an RCT to compare two treatments with Type I error of 0.05 (95% confidence) and Type II error of 0.1 (90% power). Let’s also say that this is the first large phase 3 trial of a promising drug and we know from experience with thousands of similar trials in this context that the new drug will turn out to be meaningfully different from control around 10% of the time.\n
\n
So, in 1000 trials of this sort, 100 trials will be comparing drugs which are meaningfully different and we will get a false negative for 10 of them (because we only have 90% power). 900 trials will be comparing drugs which are essentially equivalent and we will get a false positive for 45 of them (because we only have 95% confidence).\n
\n
The false positive rate is 45/135 (33.3%), nowhere near the 5% Type I error we designed the trial with.\n
\n
Statisticians are awful at naming things. But there is a reason we don’t give these error rates the nice, intuitive names you’d expect. Unfortunately we’re also awful at explaining things properly, so the misunderstanding has persisted anyway.\n
\n
This is a useful page which runs through much the same ideas as the paper linked above but in simpler terms: [The p value and the base rate fallacy](https://www.statisticsdonewrong.com/p-value.html)\n
\n
And this paper tries to rescue p-values from oblivion by calling for 0.005 to replace the usual 0.05 threshold for alpha: [Redefine statistical significance](https://www.nature.com/articles/s41562-017-0189-z.pdf).
