Abstract

For a long time the exact evaluation of parametric multiple comparison procedures was computationally almost infeasible. Resampling based techniques have been proposed instead, aiming (Hochberg, Y., Tamhane, A. C. (1987). Multiple Comparison Procedures. New York: Wiley) to approximate the true underlying distribution function, where standard integration methods failed so far and (Hsu, J. C. (1996). Multiple Comparisons. London: Chapman and Hall) to robustify the parametric test statistics against certain violations of the assumptions. This article compares several resampling based techniques with new and efficient integration methods for multiple comparisons. The goal of the numerical study is to assess, how the procedures compare to each other under a variety of normal and non-normal conditions.
