The trend test under the additive model is commonly used when a case-control genetic association study is carried out. However, for many complex diseases, the underlying genetic models are unknown and a mis-specification of the genetic model may result in a substantial loss of power. MAX3 has been proposed as an efficiency robust test against genetic model uncertainty which takes the maximum absolute value of the...
