p.adjust: Adjust P-values for Multiple Test Procedures

Description

Given a set of p-values, returns adjusted p-values, including the hybrid Hochberg-Hommel procedure (Gou et al., 2014) and Quick procedure (Gou and Zhang, 2022).

Usage

p.adjust(p, method = "gtxr", n = length(p))

Value

a vector of corrected p-values.

Arguments

p

vector of p-values.

method

multiplicity correction method, "gtxr" is the hybrid Hochberg-Hommel method, "quick" is the Quick method. Other methods include:"holm", "hochberg", "hommel", "bonferroni", "BH", "BY","fdr", "none" from the standard R function p.adjust.

n

number of p-values.
