A note on the power of Fisher's least significant difference procedure
AbstractFisher's least significant difference (LSD) procedure is a two‐step testing procedure for pairwise comparisons of several treatment groups. In the first step of the procedure, a global test is performed for the null hypothesis that the expected means of all treatment groups under study are equal.

The Maximum Familywise Error Rate of Fisher's Least Significant Difference Test
Abstract In this article an investigation is made of the maximum familywise error rate (MFWER) of Fisher's least significant difference (LSD) test for testing the equality of k population means in a one-way layout. An exact expression for the MFWER is derived (see Theorem 1) for all balanced models and for an unbalanced model with k = 3 populations ...

Least Significant Difference Test
When the F-ratio determined by analysis of variance indicates a significant difference between sample means, it is desirable to determine which means are significantly different. The Newman-Keuls test (Procedure 36) is applicable for this purpose. When the sample sizes are equal, additional tests (besides Newman-Keuls) may be used.

Studies in the context of crop performance trials were undertaken to determine the effects of the frequencies of three types of statistical errors, the relative scriousness of these errors, and the frequency distribution of true differences between means in the application of the least significant difference (L.S.D.) for pairwise multiple comparisons ...

Bayes Least Significant Difference: A Review and Comparison1
AbstractThe Bayesian approach to mean separation overcomes the objections to previous least significant difference (LSD) procedures by having a direct dependence upon the calculated F value. This procedure has the power of a comparisonwise approach when F is moderate to large in size and is conservative at F values less than about 3.0.

Researchers have long recognized the importance of monitoring trials to determine whether to terminate a trial early or change a trial because of a substantial treatment effect. Fisher's least significant difference (LSD) procedure has been suggested by Proschan et al. [Proschan, M. A., Follmann, D. A., Geller, N. L. (1994).

Photovoltaic Array Fault Detection Algorithm Based on Least Significant Difference Test
One major concern in solar systems is the health of the solar installation, specifically related to the undetected faults in the photovoltaic array. Any fault in the array could provoke power losses in the system and may generate security risks for the operative and technical personnel.

This article argues that the most reasonable and cautious definition of error rate in the multiple comparisons problem is the maximum familywise rate of Type I error (MFWER), that is, the maximum error rate attainable under all possible null hypotheses.
