st: multproc

[Char Adams <charleeroost@me.com>]

Hello, 


Does anyone have experience with false discovery methods in Stata?  I asked StataHelp and was told there wasn't an official command.  

I downloaded smileplot, but I don't know if I'm using multproc correctly.  I've varied the choice of method within the syntax I'm trying and I don't see much of difference between methods (bonferroni verus simes etc....)  

I've got a dataset which provides the pvalues in a column with my tests of interest, but I was expecting to see a corrected pvalue that would be less stringent than what I get with bonferroni.  Instead, it is about the same, depending on the method.  

I may not be using the code correctly.  


Here's the code I've tried: 
multproc ,method(liu1) puncor(.05) 

What I get: 
Method: liu1
Uncorrected overall critical P-value: .05
Number of P-values: 391
Corrected overall critical P-value: .00013118
Number of rejected P-values: 0

Am I doing something incorrectly?  Is there any easier way?  

Thank you for your time, 
Charleen
