.combine: Combining p-values

Description

This function combines local \(p\)-values to a global \(p\)-value.

Usage

.combine(x, method = "simes")

Value

These functions return a numeric vector of length \(p\)

(main effects), or a numeric matrix with \(p\) rows and \(p\) columns (interaction effects).

Arguments

x

local \(p\)-values: numeric vector of length \(k\)

method

character \("fisher"\), \("tippet"\), \("sidak"\), or \("simes"\)
