Abstract
Direct tests of the random topology model have traditionally employed the 0.05 level of significance. As exercises in model confirmation, these tests should have used a larger significance level and because they did not, the tests have been biased in favor of the model. This bias has contributed to the limitations of the model being overlooked. When all published tests of topologically distinct channel networks and ambilateral classes are repeated using a significance level of 0.30 rather than 0.05, the proportion of tests in which the model is rejected increases from 15 to 46 percent.
