3-10 | Moderate support for \({H}_{a}\) |
1-3 | Anecdotal support for \({H}_{a}\) |
1 | Support for neither hypothesis |
1/3-1 | Anecdotal support for \({H}_{b}\) |
1/10-1/3 | Moderate support for \({H}_{b}\) |
1/10-1/30 | Strong support for \({H}_{b}\) |
1/30-1/100 | Very strong support for \({H}_{b}\) |
