Should significance decisions in Dunn's test be based on the adjusted p-value or the raw p-value?

I am performing post-hoc pairwise comparisons after a significant Kruskal Wallis test using Dunn’s test.

The output of the function reports both:

  • Unadjusted p-values

  • Adjusted p-values (Benjamini–Hochberg)

    For determining statistical significance, should the decision be based on the adjusted p-values or the raw p-values?
