scipy.stats._result_classes.TukeyHSDResult.confidence_interval#

TukeyHSDResult.confidence_interval(confidence_level=0.95)[source]#

Compute the confidence interval for the specified confidence level.

Parameters
confidence_levelfloat, optional

Confidence level for the computed confidence interval of the estimated proportion. Default is .95.

Returns
ciConfidenceInterval object

The object has attributes low and high that hold the lower and upper bounds of the confidence intervals for each comparison. The high and low values are accessible for each comparison at index (i, j) between groups i and j.

>>> from scipy.stats import tukey_hsd
>>> group0 = [24.5, 23.5, 26.4, 27.1, 29.9]
>>> group1 = [28.4, 34.2, 29.5, 32.2, 30.1]
>>> group2 = [26.1, 28.3, 24.3, 26.2, 27.8]
>>> result = tukey_hsd(group0, group1, group2)
