 As already mentioned, the average statistical power in various disciplines is low. Not only is power often low, but it is virtually never reported; less than 10% of published studies in psychology report statistical power and even fewer in ecology do (Fidler et al. 2006). Explanations for the widespread neglect of statistical power often highlight the many common misconceptions and fallacies associated with p values (e.g., Haller &amp; Krauss 2002; Gigerenzer 2018). For example, the inverse probability  fallacy[1]  has been used to explain why so many researchers fail to calculate and report statistical power (Oakes 1986).
