A note on issues in meta-analysis for behavioral genetic studies using categorical phenotypes.

Behavior genetics - 1 May 1999

Ridenour T A, Heath A C

Abstract excerpt

Meta-analysis of behavioral genetic studies would provide (i) tighter confidence intervals around parameter estimates, (ii) clarification of apparently discrepant study findings, and (iii) a mechanism for analyzing systematic causes of between-study differences. We examined some key issues that arise in the meta-analysis of categorical phenotypes. Data were simulated under a multifactorial threshold model that...
