| Oct 17, 2014 at 12:32 | comment | added | goro | What I meant by "I should accept the results depending on my hypothesis" is that I ran my analysis in three different ways including GLM and permutation methods. all the methods gave me significant results and those results support my hypothesis that I should have significant difference between the groups. When I used Bonferroni for multiple correction All my results was not significant. Thats why I am confused.Is this method not optimal for my analysis so I can use different one or can I trust my results depending on the results from the other methods without to use Bonferroni? | |
