The Bonferroni Correction adjusts the significance level for multiple hypothesis tests to control the overall significance level. In this case, the overall significance level is 0.10 and there are six hypothesis tests, so the significance level for each test should be 0.10 / 6 = 0.017 (rounded to the nearest thousandth).
