P values depend upon sample size. This graph shows P values computed by unpaired t tests comparing two sets of data. The means of the two samples are 10 and 12. The SD of each sample is 5.0. I computed a t test using various sample sizes plotted on the x-axis. You can see that the P value depends on sample size. Note that both axes use a logarithmic scale
