While it is without a doubt the simplest way to correct for multiple comparisons, it is not the only way. In this post, I discuss Scheffé’s method for constructing simultaneous confidence intervals on arbitrarily many functions of the model parameters.https://www.adventuresinwhy.com/post/score_test/Tue, 24 Nov 2020 00:00:00 +0000bob@ConvexAnalytics.com (Bob Wilson)https://www.adventuresinwhy.com/post/score_test/The score test can be used to calculate p-values and confidence intervals for A/B tests. The score test considers the slope of the likelihood function at the parameter value associated with the null hypothesis.https://www.adventuresinwhy.com/post/optimal-experiment-design/Sat, 01 Jun 2019 00:00:00 +0000bob@ConvexAnalytics.com (Bob Wilson)https://www.adventuresinwhy.com/post/optimal-experiment-design/We can plan sample sizes to control the width of confidence intervals.https://www.adventuresinwhy.com/post/confidence-intervals/Mon, 12 Nov 2018 00:00:00 +0000bob@ConvexAnalytics.com (Bob Wilson)https://www.adventuresinwhy.com/post/confidence-intervals/Statistical analysis is not complete without an estimate of residual uncertainty.
