On the Transformation of Genetic Effect Size from Logit to Liability Scale.

Abstract excerpt

Genetic effects on the liability scale are informative for describing the genetic architecture of binary traits, typically diseases. However, most genetic association analyses on binary traits are performed by logistic regression, and there is no straightforward method that transforms both effect size estimate and standard error from the logit scale to the liability scale. Here, we derive a simple linear...
