Aug 5, 2016 at 10:02 comment added Silverfish I'm also concerned this answer seems to conflate methods of preserving familywise error rate with those for false discovery rate. It isn't a bad idea to be discussing both these things, but since they do different jobs I don't think they should be presented as equivalent
Aug 5, 2016 at 10:00 comment added Silverfish Your method of calculating the 40% chance of false positive in ten tests is premised on your tests being independent events but with real data this is quite unlikely to be the case. I think that is at least worthy of comment.
Oct 17, 2014 at 13:08 comment added martino There are several alternatives – Holm Bonferroni for example is simple and easy to understand. Why not give it a go. Let’s say you application is in gene expression or protein expression where you are testing possibly thousands of variables in an experiment then you FDR is typically used.
