Statistically significant

Explanation:

Jane analyzed the results of her study and found that the probability of getting such findings by chance was less than 1 in 100. Jane can say that her results are statistically significant.

In research analysis, probability values for significance is usually pegged at 0.05, meaning that the probability of getting such finding by chance is 5 in 100. Thus any level lower than that, such as Jane's finding of less than 1 in 100 (< 0.01) is regarded as very significant.
