Might anyone be able to point me towards published work containing statistical significance limits used in ARM research - or, more widely, in LIS research?
I am looking for typical values used for Confidence Intervals and Confidence Levels (aka Limits, Degrees, Tolerances etc)
The only source that I have come across is the British Library Report underpinning the National Preservation Office’s (NPO) Preservation Assessment Survey for Libraries and Archives (A model for assessing preservation needs in libraries: British Library Research and Innovation Report 125, 1998, App F). This cites a "Degree of Precision" of +/- 5 Percentage Points, with a 95% Confidence Level.
Thank you!
