Table 6.

Setup for calculation of sensitivity, power, and false positive rates.

Region-based test result Truth
True HA True H0 Total
p-value < Threshold: reject null hypothesis A C A + C
p-value ≥ Threshold: do not reject null hypothesis B D B + D
Total A + B C + D

A, B, C, D represent the numbers of tests that fall into the four cells defined by the p-value (whether or not the null hypothesis is rejected) and whether (HA) or not (H0) the region is a causal region.
