A survey of affected-sibship statistics for nonparametric linkage analysis.

American journal of human genetics - 1 Jul 2001

Sengul H, Weeks D E, Feingold E

Abstract excerpt

We have compared the power of a large number of allele-sharing statistics for "nonparametric" linkage analysis with affected sibships. Our rationale was that there is an extensive literature comparing statistics for sibling pairs but that there has not been much guidance on how to choose statistics for studies that include sibships of various sizes. We concentrated on statistics that can be described as assigning...
