Resumen:
When the behaviour of a specific hypothesis test statistic is studied by a Monte Carlo experiment, the usual way to describe its quality is by giving the empirical level of the test. As an alternative to this procedure, we use the empirical distribution of the obtained \emph{p-}values and exploit its information both graphically and numerically.
