Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that the Benjamini and Hochberg approach is used to control the false discovery rate in statistical testing?

Yes. The Benjamini and Hochberg procedure is a foundational statistical approach widely used to control the false discovery rate in multiple hypothesis testing.

Verdict: SUPPORTED · 9 sources for, 0 against · Last checked

The analysis

The claim is specific, empirical, and contestable in principle, but the retrieved scientific literature overwhelmingly supports the foundational role and ongoing application of the Benjamini and Hochberg approach for controlling the false discovery rate in statistical testing. Multiple foundational and contemporary papers utilize or discuss this procedure without any refuting evidence.
