Familial aggregation of a disease is usually tested using a chi square statistic on a sample of pairs of related individuals. Standard sampling designs often produce dependent observations (multiple pairs from the same family), possibly inflating the numerical value of the statistic over the value i

## Abstract We present a class of family‐based association tests (FBATs) for ordinal traits that adjust for the effects of covariates. For complex diseases, especially mental health conditions including nicotine dependence and substance use, the outcome variables are often recorded in an ordinal ra

We propose an odds-ratio measure of twin association for a dichotomous trait. This odds ratio can be estimated without arbitrarily specifying an index twin and without estimating additional nuisance parameters. Tests of association and confidence intervals may be computed easily, in contrast to thos
