I wouldn't say he invented the t-test, so much as he discovered that a test (which we now call the t-test) follows a t-distribution (which he discovered). Later a variety of other tests were found to also follow this t-distribution (including the paired sample t-test).

Ooh, this looks good! Thanks, Dominque - I think maybe we're in the same headspace lately - I've been reading a lot of philosophy and history of science this year.

I'm not sure about others, but for me this has been a process of trying to learn my field's history so as not to repeat it. My genuine question has been: Yes, Fisher was not a great dude, but did/how might his eugenist views impact the development of the models we use today?

Selection models (Vevea & Hedges, e.g.) allow for both sign and significance to be taken into account!
