p.adj.perm {kyotil}R Documentation

Permutation-based Multitesting P Values Adjustment

Description

An implementation of Westfall and Young

Usage

p.adj.perm(p.unadj, p.perms, alpha = 0.05)

Arguments

p.unadj

p.unadj

p.perms

p.perms

alpha

alpha

Details

This implementation is not as fast as the implementation from the package multtest. But ususally the step to create p.perms is the rate-limiting step.

The smallest of the Westfall and Young FWER-controlling multitesting adjusted p values coincides with the p value for testing a global null without any assumptions. But for the multitesting adjustment to hold, it requires the subset pivotality condition.
