We therefore require an alternative approach while conducting multiple tests that will account for an increased probability of discovering a significant effect through repeated trials. The Bonferroni correction is a very simple adjustment that ensures we are unlikely to make Type I errors. It does this by adjusting the alpha for our tests.
The adjustment is a simple one—the Bonferroni correction simply divides our desired alpha by the number of tests we are performing. For example, if we had k site designs to test and an experimental alpha of 0.05, the Bonferroni correction is expressed as:

This is a safe way to mitigate ...
