Sintesi	Dunn's test is a nonparametric post-hoc procedure introduced by Olive Jean Dunn in 1964 to identify which specific pairs of groups differ significantly after a Kruskal-Wallis test has returned a significant overall result. It compares groups pairwise using rank sums and applies a multiple-comparison correction — most commonly Bonferroni or Holm — to control the family-wise error rate.	The Bonferroni correction is a conservative, universally applicable method for controlling the family-wise error rate (FWER) when conducting multiple simultaneous hypothesis tests. Grounded in Bonferroni's 1936 probability inequality and formalized for multiple comparisons by Olive Jean Dunn in 1961, the procedure divides the target significance level α by the number of tests m, ensuring that the probability of making even one false rejection across the entire family of tests does not exceed α.
