Explanation:
See:
Post-hoc analysis
Post-hoc analysis, in the context of design and analysis of experiments, refers to looking in the data—after the experiment has concluded—for patterns that were not specified a priori. It is also known as data dredging to evoke the sense that the more one looks the more likely something will be found. More subtly, each time a pattern in the data is considered, a statistical test is effectively performed. This greatly inflates the total number of statistical tests and necessitates the use of multiple testing procedures to compensate. However, this is difficult to do precisely and in fact most results of post-hoc analyses are reported as they are with unadjusted p-values. These p-values must be interpreted in light of the fact that they are small and selected subset of a potentially large group of p-values. Results of post-hoc analysis should be explicitly labeled as such in reports and publications to avoid misleading readers.

disagree  Heloísa Ferdinandt: Post-hoc não tem relação com o momento da análise, apesar de quase sempre ser feita a posteriori, mas sim com a forma como os dados são relacionados e/ou associados.

Reference

Reference information:
Para retirar dúvidas quanto ao significado da expressão latina, copio abaixo o verbete "post-hoc" do Houaiss.
Post-hoc
locução adjetiva
Rubrica: lógica.
relativo à falácia lógica que consiste em inferir uma relação de causalidade onde há apenas sucessão temporal (como em "se q segue-se a p, p é a causa de q")
Parece-me que algumas respostas oferecidas aqui são post-hoc.
Um abraço a todos.
