These were also followed up by multiple pairwise comparisons to identify significant changes between time points, using the LSD procedure.
Multiple pairwise comparisons were performed with the Wilcoxon signed rank test.
The least significant difference (LSD) procedure was used to protect against the inflation of the Type I error rate due to the multiple pairwise comparisons.
Based upon preliminary data and published literature, a priori group comparisons were specifically defined before the start of the experiment and were assessed with the Tukey test (for multiple pairwise comparisons of means) (Keppel, 1973).
In such cases, separate repeated-measures ANOVAs were conducted within each intensity condition (with the two weight groups collapsed) and followed up by multiple pairwise comparisons to identify significant changes between time points.
Significant preference was observed for the north-east (NE) quadrant where the platform had previously been located, indicating memory retention of the prior platform location; ***P < 0.001 (multiple pairwise comparisons with Bonferroni post hoc correction).
Tukey's method was used to adjust for multiple pairwise comparisons.
In addition, genetic differentiation at DRB across multiple pairwise comparisons of live and dead dolphins was greater than differentiation observed at neutral loci.
Tukey's method was used to adjust for multiple pairwise comparisons, which were based on the differences in least squares means.
Data were compared by one-way analysis of variance, with Bonferroni's post-hoc test for multiple pairwise comparisons (* P < 0.05).
A Tukey-like approach with permutation resampling is applied to adjust P values for multiple pairwise comparisons.
