The first idea thatmight come to mind is to test each hypothesis separately, using some level of significance .At first blush, this doesn t seem like a bad idea. However, consider a case where you have20 hypotheses to test, and a significance level of What s the probability of observingat least one significant result just due to chance?P(at least one significant result) = 1 P(no significant results)= 1 (1 )20 , with 20 tests being considered, we have a 64% chance of observing at least one sig-nificant result, even if all of the tests are actually not significant.
