This problem presents the Bonferroni correction & Šidák corrections.
The link takes you to the Wikipedia page where both corrections are explained in detail (along with an explanation for why they probably should be called the Dunn-Bonferroni & Dunn-Šidák corrections).
Both corrections provide an adjusted that would result in a desired . The Šidák provides the more “accurate” correction, but the Bonferroni provides the “easier” calculation. For contrasts (or comparisons), the Bonferroni adjustment is
and the Šidák adjustment is
You are conducting a 1-way fixed-effects ANOVA with 6 groups. After obtaining a statistically significant omnibus result, you want to examine all possible pairwise comparisons. You want an experiment-wise significance level of .
The Dunn-Bonferroni adjustment is:
The Dunn-Šidák adjustment is:
To compare the two methods, report answers accurate to 5 decimal places.
Questions for reflection: How different are the numbers? How might these values be used to obtain “adjusted” confidence intervals for the difference in means for pairs of groups being compared?
