在《中国土壤与肥料》稿件的评审、编校和对已发表论文的审读时,发现一些论文中多重比较存在方法误用、结果表达缺陷和错误以及结果分析不够严谨和深入等问题。本文结合一些实例剖析了上述问题及其产生原因,并提出相应的修正措施。为避免此类问题再次出现,建议编辑加强统计学知识学习,强化统计学内容审核,建立期刊统计学审核标准,依照标准规范论文写作与修改。

Some common problems of multiple comparisons are found,such as wrong choice of analytical methods,imperfection/mistakes of result expressions and impreciseness/superficialness of result analyses.These problems occur not only in received manuscripts but also in published articles of the journal Soil and Fertilizer Sciences in China during the periods of review,editing,proofreading or re-evaluation.These problems and their causes are analyzed in detail based on concrete cases,and corresponding measures of correction are brought forward.In order to avoid these problems,it is suggested that the editors reinforce learning of statistics,emphasize reviewing of statistical content,establish standards for statistical review in order to normalize paper revisions.
