β¦ Synopsis
We derive an approximation to the null distribution of Fisher's statistic for combining p-values when the underlying test statistics are jointly distributed as multivariate t with common denominator. Applications to testing problems involving order-restricted parameters are brie y discussed.

We present a new procedure for combining P-values from a set of L hypothesis tests. Our procedure is to take the product of only those P-values less than some specified cut-off value and to evaluate the probability of such a product, or a smaller value, under the overall hypothesis that all L hypoth
## Abstract It is increasingly recognized that pathway analysesβa joint test of association between the outcome and a group of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within a biological pathwayβcould potentially complement singleβSNP analysis and provide additional insights for the genetic architec
The form of a Bayes p-value is given when the loss function in a testing problem with a point null is an increasing function of the p-value. A complete class result and an essentially complete class result are given.
