Consider the problem of testing s hypotheses simultaneously. In order to deal with themultiplicity problem, the classical approach is to restrict attention to procedures that controlthe familywise error rate (FWE). Typically, it is known how to construct tests of the individualhypotheses, and...

Multiple testing refers to any instance that involves the simultaneous testing of more than one hypothesis. If decisions about the individual hypotheses are based on the unadjusted marginal p-values, then there is typically a large probability that some of the true null hypotheses will be...
