## Abstract Genome‐wide association studies are helping to dissect the etiology of complex diseases. Although case‐control association tests are generally more powerful than family‐based association tests, population stratification can lead to spurious disease‐marker association or mask a true asso

## Abstract We present a new method, the δ‐centralization (DC) method, to correct for population stratification (PS) in case‐control association studies. DC works well even when there is a lot of confounding due to PS. The latter causes overdispersion in the usual chi‐square statistics which then h
