𝜌 𝑢 : correlation parameter for test statistics for which the alternative hypotheses are true; 𝜌 𝑣 : correlation parameter for test statistics for which the null hypotheses are true; 𝑝 𝑢 : proportion of correlated test statistics for which the alternative hypotheses are true; 𝑝 𝑣 : proportion of correlated test statistics for which the null hypotheses are true.
