I'm wondering if there is a textbook that summarize the methods on adjusting p-values for multiple comparisons. Most of the references on p.adjust() are over 10 years old.
Being 10 years old does not mean the calculus behind those methods has changed.
I never said that the calculus has been changed.
I feel it would be better if somebody could recommend me a textbook on multiple hypothesis correction, so that I can quickly get a general idea of different methods.
There are some around just search for your keywords.
I prefer descriptions from books. Most online description are not very satisfactory, because they are not peer reviewed. I looked through Testing Statistical Hypotheses by Lehmann. This book only gives references to the recent works. If you happen to know a review article or a textbook that summarize all the methods in multiple hypothesis correction. Please let me know.
Take a look at: Multiple Comparisons: Theory and Methods Jason C. Hsu Chapman & Hall 1996 More information here: http://www.stat.ohio-state.edu/~jch/mc.html Amazon.com link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0412982811 HTH, Marc Schwartz
