public static double GetSidakEffectiveSignificanceLevel(
	double significanceLevel,
	int numberOfTests
)

Parameters

significanceLevel  Double
The original significance level.
numberOfTests  Int32
The number of hypothesis tests.

Remarks

This method adjusts the significance level to control the family-wise error rate under the assumption of independent tests. It is less conservative than the Bonferroni correction. Ensure independence of tests for valid results.
