Just-noticeable difference         
AMOUNT THAT A STIMULUS MUST BE CHANGED TO BE DETECTED
Jnd; Differential threshold; Difference threshold; Just-noticable difference; Difference limen; Just noticeable difference; Just noticeable differences
In the branch of experimental psychology focused on sense, sensation, and perception, which is called psychophysics, a just-noticeable difference or JND is the amount something must be changed in order for a difference to be noticeable, detectable at least half the time (absolute threshold). This limen is also known as the difference limen, difference threshold, or least perceptible difference.
Relative change and difference         
TECHNIQUES USED TO COMPARE TWO QUANTITIES
Percent error; % difference; Percent Difference; %difference; %ch; Relative difference; Percentage change; Percent change; Relative percent difference; Percentage increase; Relative change; Percent difference; Δ%; %CH; Percentage difference; Percent discrepancy; Log point; Log change
In any quantitative science, the terms relative change and relative difference are used to compare two quantities while taking into account the "sizes" of the things being compared. The comparison is expressed as a ratio and is a unitless number.
Minimal important difference         
STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT MINIMUM SET OF CLINICAL OUTCOMES THAT DEMONSTRATES A CLINICAL BENEFIT OF AN INTERVENTION OR TREATMENT
Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Minimal Clinically Important Difference; Minimal Clinically Important Difference; Minimal clinically important difference
The minimal important difference (MID) or minimal clinically important difference (MCID) is the smallest change in a treatment outcome that an individual patient would identify as important and which would indicate a change in the patient's management.

Q–Q plot

In statistics, a Q–Q plot (quantile-quantile plot) is a probability plot, a graphical method for comparing two probability distributions by plotting their quantiles against each other. A point (x, y) on the plot corresponds to one of the quantiles of the second distribution (y-coordinate) plotted against the same quantile of the first distribution (x-coordinate). This defines a parametric curve where the parameter is the index of the quantile interval.

If the two distributions being compared are similar, the points in the Q–Q plot will approximately lie on the identity line y = x. If the distributions are linearly related, the points in the Q–Q plot will approximately lie on a line, but not necessarily on the line y = x. Q–Q plots can also be used as a graphical means of estimating parameters in a location-scale family of distributions.

A Q–Q plot is used to compare the shapes of distributions, providing a graphical view of how properties such as location, scale, and skewness are similar or different in the two distributions. Q–Q plots can be used to compare collections of data, or theoretical distributions. The use of Q–Q plots to compare two samples of data can be viewed as a non-parametric approach to comparing their underlying distributions. A Q–Q plot is generally more diagnostic than comparing the samples' histograms, but is less widely known. Q–Q plots are commonly used to compare a data set to a theoretical model. This can provide an assessment of goodness of fit that is graphical, rather than reducing to a numerical summary statistic. Q–Q plots are also used to compare two theoretical distributions to each other. Since Q–Q plots compare distributions, there is no need for the values to be observed as pairs, as in a scatter plot, or even for the numbers of values in the two groups being compared to be equal.

The term "probability plot" sometimes refers specifically to a Q–Q plot, sometimes to a more general class of plots, and sometimes to the less commonly used P–P plot. The probability plot correlation coefficient plot (PPCC plot) is a quantity derived from the idea of Q–Q plots, which measures the agreement of a fitted distribution with observed data and which is sometimes used as a means of fitting a distribution to data.
