FSFWER.arbidept.p.adjust: Adjusted P-values for Fixed Sequence FWER Controlling...

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) References See Also Examples

View source: R/FSFWER.R

Description

Given a set of pre-ordered p-values and accuracy for the result, returns adjusted p-values using one of three generalized fixed sequence FWER controlling procedures. The function also provides an option to make decisions given a pre-specified significant level α.

Usage

2
FSFWER.arbidept.p.adjust(p, alpha=0.05, beta=0.5, tol = 1e-6,
  method = c("reject","accept","both"), make.decision = TRUE)

Arguments

p

numeric vector of p-values (possibly with NAs). Any other R is coerced by as.numeric. Same as in p.adjust.

alpha

significant level used to compare with adjusted p-values to make decisions, the default value is 0.05.

beta

pre-specified constant satisfying 0 ≤ β <1, only for method="accept". The default value is 0.5.

tol

desired accuracy. The default value is 1e-6 .

method

adjustment method. See details.

make.decision

logical; if TRUE (default), then the output include the decision rules compared adjusted p-values with significant level alpha

Details

The adjustment methods for Fixed Sequence multiple testing include Procedure A1 only using numbers of rejections ("reject"), Procedure A2 only using numbers of acceptances ("accept") and Procedure A3 using both numbers of rejections and numbers of acceptances ("both"). The three methods strongly control FWER under arbitrary dependence. The constant beta needs to be specified for the Procedure A2 ("accept"), while one can ignore this argument when using other methods.

Value

A numeric vector of the adjusted p-values (of the same length as p) if make.decision = FALSE, or a data frame including original p-values, adjusted p-values and decision rules if make.decision = TRUE.
