A new measure of the effective number of tests, a practical tool for comparing families of non-independent significance tests.

Genetic epidemiology - 1 Nov 2009

Galwey Nicholas W

Abstract excerpt

p-Values from tests of significance can be combined using the Sidák correction (or the closely related Bonferroni correction) or Fisher's method, but both these methods require that the p-values combined be independent when all null hypotheses tested are true. In this paper adjustments to these m...
