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 Most online description are not very satisfactory, because they are not peer reviewed.
Sure, I meant to find the books. There is for example focussed on Bioinformatics applications: Dudoit, Sandrine and van der Laan, Mark J (2008): Multiple Testing Procedures with Applications to Genomics, Springer, New York. But that is just one example - and I tend not to mention books in answers to such requests since books are a matter of taste and may depend on the audience, community in which to use the method, and the application.
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.
For the good old methods, I only happen to know German textbooks. Should be summarized in any good overview textbook on testing, though. Best, Uwe Ligges
