The larger the p value, the less evidence the data provide against the null hypothesis and in favour of the alternative hypothesis

Step-by-step explanation:

P Value is the probability of obtaining extreme observed results in a statistical hypothesis test, assuming that null hypothesis is correct.

High p value implies evidence in favour of null hypothesis, against alternate hypothesis.

Low p value implies evidence against null hypothesis, in favour of alternate hypothesis

So, larger p value, more evidence the data provides in favour of null hypothesis & against alternate hypothesis.
