Note. The power is calculated at the exact 5% level. The 5% critical values for these tests are obtained from their finite sample distributions generated by 2000 simulations for sample sizes , 50, and 100. is Maddala and Wuโ€™s [5] original Fisher test, is Demetrescu et al.โ€™s [7] modified inverse normal method, and is Sheng and Yangโ€™s [9] modified TPM.
