Outcomes and expected outcomes of testing 𝑚 hypotheses.

Outcomes
Reject 𝐻 0 Accept 𝐻 0 Total

𝐻 0 is true 𝑉 𝑚 0 𝑉 𝑚 0
𝐻 1 is true 𝑈 𝑚 1 𝑈 𝑚 1
Total 𝑅 𝑚 𝑅 𝑚

Expected outcomes
Reject 𝐻 0 Accept 𝐻 0 Total

𝐻 0 is true 𝑚 0 𝛼 𝑚 0 ( 1 𝛼 ) 𝑚 0
𝐻 1 is true 𝑚 1 ( 1 𝛽 ) 𝑚 1 𝛽 𝑚 1
Total 𝑚 0 𝛼 + 𝑚 1 ( 1 𝛽 ) 𝑚 0 ( 1 𝛼 ) + 𝑚 1 𝛽 𝑚
