The (ir)relevance of stopping rules thus has severe implications for scientific practice and the proper interpretation of sequential stopping rule, such as sampling on until the result favors our pet hypothesis, will lead us to equally biased conclusions (Mayo 1996, 343–345). Third, we assert the pre-experimental relevance and postexperimental irrelevance of stopping rules and vindicate this standpoint from which stopping rules can be relevant correspond to two stages of a sequential trial: first, the pre-experimental stage, where the trial is planned frequentist statistician who works with p-values, significance levels, degrees of severity, or the like, the strength of the observed evidence depends conducts a sequential trial with a certain stopping rule, but the evidence stopping rules in frequentist terms (see Schervish, Seidenfeld, and Kadane Berry (1988), "The Relevance of Stopping Rules in Statistical Inference" (with discussion), in S.	./cache/work_3gjzim4knnb73chdhbn36y676i.pdf	./txt/work_3gjzim4knnb73chdhbn36y676i.txt
