Comparison of empirical and theoretical average power for the Benjamini-Hochberg (1995) procedure. Results are for three independent χ² hypothesis tests. The sample size for each experiment is N ∈ {100, 250, 500}. The odds ratio under the alternative is δ ∈ {1.2, 2.3 and 5.4}.

1.2	100	0.064	0.028	0.036
	250	0.076	0.045	0.031
	500	0.096	0.077	0.019
2.3	100	0.567	0.436	0.131
	250	0.896	0.876	0.020
	500	0.996	0.994	0.002
5.4	100	0.992	0.978	0.014
	250	1.000	1.000	0.000
