A lower p-value indicates a larger or more important effect.

0 sources for · 2 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that a lower p-value indicates a larger or more important effect?

No. A statistics methods article states that, with equal sample sizes, the relationship with the larger magnitude of effect will have the smaller p-value, directly contradicting the claim. A sequencing comparison also reports lower p-values alongside smaller effect sizes.
