Comparison of empirical and theoretical average power for the Benjamini and Hochberg (1995) procedure. Results are for three independent general linear multivariate models. Each hypothesis is tested with the Pillai-Bartlett trace. The sample size for each experiment is N ∈ {30, 90, 150}. The difference between treatment group means under the alternative is δ ∈ {0.2, 0.5 and 0.8}.
