hommel.test: Test Multiple Comparisons Using Hommel's Method

Description

Given a set of p-values and a test level, returns vector of test results for each hypothesis.

Usage

hommel.test(p, alpha=0.05)

Arguments

p

numeric vector of p-values

alpha

numeric value, desired significance level

Value

logical vector indicating whether each hypothesis is accepted

Details

This function implements the multiple testing procedure of Hommel (1988). Hommel's method is also implemented as an adjusted p-value method in the function p.adjust but the accept/reject approach used here is faster.
