certain defined conditions"). Also, the first category (methods that work "under any conditions") is so narrowly defined that it excludes basically any standard method, as there are pretty much always statistical assumptions that are required. And the second category (methods that work "except under certain defined conditions") is so vague as to be essentially meaningless. Also, some of the info here is false. For example, Tukey's range test is NOT an omnibus test; and a method can require a significant omnibus test and still provide strong control (e.g., Hayter's procedure). Also, the list of categories ignores procedures that are designed to control the false discovery rate, rather than the familywise error rate. It would be better to link to the familywise error rate article than attempt to cram a bunch of detail in here.

667:, by Westfall, Tobias, and Wolfinger (all respected names in the field), the authors say "the term 'multiple testing' is more common than 'multiple comparisons' when analyzing modern high-dimensional data." They make a fairly loose distinction between "multiple comparisons" and "multiple testing," saying that "multiple comparisons" is "often" used for comparisons of several treatment means, whereas "multiple testing" is used in "a broader class of applications." But certainly if one substituted nonparametric tests (in which case the comparisons wouldn't be of means), there would still be "multiple comparisons" in the literal sense. In fact, even multiple correlation tests can be considered multiple "comparisons," as each test is effectively a comparison of the correlation to zero. 641:

of P-values is the most common method for doing this, but not the only one. Multiple comparisons are the special cases where the tests are comparisons between groups, typically several pairwise comparisons on a set of groups (e.g. all-against-all or one-against-all); although Bonferroni correction is still valid, it is typically not very powerful as it does not make use of the dependencies between different pairwise tests performed on the same groups. I'll see if I can make an update to the multiple testing page at some point which will make this difference more clear. --

656:, Shaffer, 1995). In various instances over the decades, people have sometimes used the term "multiple comparisons" more narrowly (referring to ANOVA-type contexts), but I disagree with Septagon's statement that "multiple comparisons" can only be used in the context of group comparisons. For example, in a within-subjects (repeated measures) design, there aren't separate groups, but there could still be "multiple comparisons" if there are more than one factor or more than two factor levels or more than one outcome variable. 85: 64: 1133:

except under certain defined conditions. Methods which rely on an omnibus test before proceeding to multiple comparisons. Typically these methods require a significant ANOVA, MANOVA, or Tukey's range test. These methods generally provide only "weak" control of Type I error, except for certain numbers of hypotheses. Empirical methods, which control the proportion of Type I errors adaptively, utilizing correlation and distribution characteristics of the observed data.

806:"If the inferences are hypothesis tests rather than confidence intervals, the same issue arises. With just one test performed at the 5% level, there is only a 5% chance of incorrectly rejecting the null hypothesis if the null hypothesis is true. However, for 100 tests where all null hypotheses are false, the expected number of incorrect rejections is 5. If the tests are independent, the probability of at least one incorrect rejection is 99.4%. These errors are called 1189:

distributional assumptions" is vague and likely unclear to many readers. I suggest either being more explicit (e.g., "The Bonferroni procedure does not require any assumptions about the dependence (correlation) of the tests, and does not impose any added assumptions about the distributions of the test statistics") or simply linking to the Bonferroni correction article without going into the issue of assumptions here.

159: 382:", then indeed we are not talking about multiple testing in general (which covers more generally the problems of "using statistical tests repeatedly" as indicated in the intro). Do you agree ? In this case, most of the discussion could go in a more general article on multiple testing, that I will be happy to start. Unfortunately, all the definitions I have been able to find so far for 33: 1198:

pros and cons, and some procedures are more generalized or specialized than others. Mentioning Bonferroni makes sense (though we don't need to do so multiple times in the article), since that's the simplest method. Why don't we just mention Bonferroni and note that there are other procedures, rather than going into detail about two particular alternatives?

or wilcoxon, it is more likely having false positives (the coin example in the article). In this way, we would be accepting a false hipotesis for example saying that A has the same mean that D. For this reason, we have tests designed to avoid this: ANOVA (parametric), Friedman (nonparametric), others??...

The table is confusing, mostly because there is no clear relation between rows and columns. I believe "Declared significant" means "Researchers believe alternative hypothesis to be true", and "Declared non-significant" means "Researchers believe null hypothesis to be true". This relabeling might make

That method (i.e., the Šidák procedure) is indeed marginally less conservative than Bonferroni, but it's actually marginally liberal when the tests are negatively dependent. Also, focusing on the Šidák and Holm procedures is abritrary. Numerous proceudres have been developed. Each procedures has its

In some situations, the Bonferroni correction is substantially conservative, i.e., the actual family-wise error rate is much less than the prescribed level α. This occurs when the test statistics are highly dependent (in the extreme case where the tests are perfectly dependent, the family-wise error

554:

After performing ANOVA or Friedman, we only know that for example H0: A = B = C = D is not true. Then we would probably want to know which one is different from the others. For this purpose, we can apply one of the techniques that allow us to _compare_ every pair: Tukey test, Nemenyi, Bonferroni...

550:

With these definitions, I think that making _multiple test_ is repeating a test some times. An example, if we want to test if A is better than B (or equal, or whatever). After that we got C and we want to test A vs C, and B vs C. Then comes D and I want A-D, B-D, C-D... If we do that, with a t-test

Not necessarily. There are procedures that can be more conservative than Bonferroni in some cases (e.g., the Benjamini–Yekutieli procedure and the Scheffé procedure). Also, note that we don't need to mention the Bonferroni procedure both here and in the next section. Also, "free of dependence and

I'm late to this discussion, but I've never heard of multiple testing, until just now. I use multiple comparisons as a term all the time (especially Bonferroni and friends). Could it be a UK/US thing, or a case where SPSS has dictated the vocabulary to the world? Otherwise, I think the time for

The previous could clearly split article in two, but probably I have left other ideas, like those about techniques to repeat a test in order to increase power that I do not know of. I think we should clearify which contents do we want here before deciding about one or two articles.

699:

I agree. I don't know what the sentence "The experimentwise α level increases exponentially as the number of comparisons increases." means. What is an α level, or where do I go to look it up? Not really a field I know that much about, so I look forward to a more clear article. --

Any outcome of tossing a fair coin 10 times has probibility of (1/2) ^ 10. There is only one way to get 10 heads and then 10 ways of getting 9 heads (once for each of the 10 throws being a tail e.g. first is a tail or third is a tail) hence (1 + 10) * (1/2).

659:"Multiple comparisons" is an older term than "multiple testing," so it is not surprising that it shows up more in searches. But "multiple testing" is now very much a standard, well accepted term in the field. For instance, there is a well known text called 403:. I have used it myself, and had reviewers of my own research papers claim I need to do "multiple comparisons corrections." Also, google returns 177,000 hits for the search bonferroni+"multiple comparisons", and 48,000 for bonferroni+"multiple testing". 1016:), would still need to have a source brought for it and deleted otherwise. Well here are the sources, you could just google "MCP conference XXX" (when XXX is the year of the confernce) and get these as first results, but I'll list those results anyway: 854: 820:

that is, we reject it when we think is false (based on the alpha level). In this case the problem arise because we reject it even if it is true. Sorry if I misunderstood- non-statistician here.Diego Diez 13:22, 23 September 2010 (UTC)

your conception of multiple comparisons (i.e. the ANOVA f-test) a specific example of multiple testing/my conception of multiple comparisons? I wonder if we aren't just running into a linguistic rather than content-based hurdle here.

1158:

If m independent comparisons are performed, the family-wise error rate (FWER), is given by α¯ = 1 − ( 1 − α)^m . Hence, unless the tests are perfectly positively dependent (i.e., identical), α¯ increases as the number of comparisons

Not clear what "recalculating probabilities" means. And "repeated multiple times" doesn't make sense in this context. Multiple testing doesn't mean the same test is repeated; it means multiple different tests are conducted.

The second statement, though true, doesn't follow from the first, so why "Hence?" Also, FWER is only one error rate that's been defined; what about the per-family error rate and the false discovery rate?

To avoid confusion, maybe the best approach for this article is treat "multiple comparisons" as indeed equivalent to "multiple testing," but mention that the term has sometimes been defined more narrowly.
