Fill in the Blank

A researcher finds a significant overall difference between the means of four experimental groups. When evaluating how to proceed with pairwise comparisons, the researcher chooses to use Tukey's Honestly Significant Difference (HSD) test. The primary justification for this choice is that the HSD test is specifically designed to prevent the inflation of the _______________ error rate, ensuring that the total probability of a false positive across all comparisons does not exceed the chosen significance level of .05.05.
