Thanks in advance for your help. I am running a repeated measures ANOVA in r. The same group undergoes to four different treatment conditions. So, all individuals are treated with treatments A, B, C and D in four different occasions. Once I get a significant ANOVA, I first run a paired samples t-test using the code:
t.test(X1,X2,paired=TRUE) #being x1 the punctuation after treatment 1 and x2 the punctuation after treatment 2. After this, I run a Tukey posthoc test for repeated measures as stated in gribblelab: require(nlme) a1<-lme(x~factortmnt,random=~1|factorid/factortmnt,data=mydata) print(anova(a1)) require(multcomp) summary(glht(a1,linfct=mcp(factortmnt="Tukey"))) The fact is that once I get both results, there are some occasions in which I get lower p values with Tukeys correction than in paired t-tests. How is it possible? Isn't Tukey more restrictive than paired t-tests?
