Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: The power of genetic association studies is limited by stringent levels of statistical significance. To improve power, Bayes factors (BFs) have been suggested as an alternative measure to the p value, and Storey recently introduced an optimal discovery procedure (ODP) for multiple testing. We aimed to adapt the ODP to genetic case-control studies and to compare its power to p values and asymptotic BFs...
