[Eeglablist] Data Classification Accuracy vs p-value

Thu Apr 14 14:00:34 PDT 2016

Hi,
It is not the pure EEG question:
Let's assume that we have two groups of subjects 'A 'and 'B' and for each group we have same set of EEG features [x1 x2 ...xm]. If we run a multivariate test and then find  there is a significant statistical difference between A and B, can we conclude that if we apply a data classification method ( such as Support Vector Machine or such) on them then we will get high classification ratio?
In other words, I wonder if there is any relationship between the p-values among two groups and the classification accuracy /performance .
Thanks
