title: Understanding P-Values in R - easy
body: <p>When looking at the table of coefficients for models it lists <code>.</code>, <code>*</code>, <code>**</code>, or <code>***</code> next to the P-values.</p>
  
  <p>They state this at the bottom (but I find this is what actually confuses me): </p>
  
  <p><code>Signif. codes:  0 ‘***’ 0.001 ‘**’ 0.01 ‘*’ 0.05 ‘.’ 0.1 ‘ ’ 1</code></p>
  
  <p>One of my models has a P value of 0.00506 with <code>**</code>. But that doesn't make sense to me according to the line above. I think I've made it a lot more confusing than it actually is!</p>
  
  <p>So in painfully simple terms what do the <code>*</code>, <code>**</code>, <code>***</code>'s equate to?</p>
