Multiple Comparisons and Multiple Tests - Continuing Education - Course
ASA
Instructor(s): Peter Westfall, Texas Tech University
This short course will cover multiple comparisons and multiple testing methods, from basic and state-of-the practice to advanced and state-of-the-art. Topics include "family" choice, combined versus component tests, interval versus test-based inference, Intersection-Union versus Union-Intersection tests, False Discovery Rate versus Familywise Error Rate, and Bayes/frequentist views. Models include standard ANOVA, regression, and multivariate analysis, as well as more general models such as are used in survival analysis, GLIMs, mixed models, and nonparametrics. Current software implementations based on recent research in JASA by Westfall and Tobias will be emphasized. Applications include clinical trials, agriculture, business and genetics. Prerequisite: Knowledge of probability-based statistical inference through ANOVA, regression and applied multivariate analysis.
