One of the most common ways to report statistical test outcomes is by using \(p\)-values, or attained significance levels.
For tests where a rejection threshold \(T\geq k=k(\alpha)\) is picked based on the requested significance level, a realization \(t\) of \(T\) splits the interval \([0,1]\) into two parts: \[ [0,1] = \{\alpha : t \geq k(\alpha)\} \cup \{\alpha : t \ngeq k(\alpha)\} \]
The smallest value in \(\{\alpha : t \geq k(\alpha)\}\) is the “best possible” rejection level (smallest rejection region) that still rejects at \(T=t\).
