Multiple Testing Correction
This drop-down menu enables you to apply multiple testing corrections for testing multiple hypotheses.
Available options are described in the table below:
Note: These adjustments can be extremely conservative and should be viewed with caution.
Requests adjusted p-values by using the linear step-up method of Benjamini and Hochberg (1995)2.
These p-values do not control the familywise error rate, but they do control the false discovery rate in some cases.
Note: These adjustments are slightly less conservative than the Bonferroni adjustments, but they still should be viewed with caution.

The Bonferrono and Šidák methods are modifications of the FDR method.
