ON MAKING MULTIPLE COMPARISONS IN CLINICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL PHARMACOLOGY AND PHYSIOLOGY

1. It is a central thesis of this review that in clinical and experimental pharmacology and physiology the goal of statistical analysis should be to minimize the risk of making any false–positive inferences from the results of an experiment (experimentwise Type I error).
