False Discovery Rate Calculation

Hi,

I’m trying to find how the FDR values are calculated in the t test and ANOVA feature. I assume that it is by the false discovery rate method of Benjamini and Hochberg, but I do not see anything on the forum or your previous paper that explicitly says that. Could you please clarify?

Thank you,

Yes. The FDR is based on R

p.adjust(raw.pvals, “fdr”)

The associated R documentation:
The "BH" (aka "fdr" ) and "BY" method of Benjamini, Hochberg, and Yekutieli control the false discovery rate, the expected proportion of false discoveries amongst the rejected hypotheses. The false discovery rate is a less stringent condition than the family-wise error rate, so these methods are more powerful than the others.
