## Abstract With the emergence of Biobanks alongside large‐scale genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) we will soon be in the enviable situation of obtaining precise estimates of population allele frequencies for SNPs which make up the panels in standard genotyping arrays, such as those produced f

## 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

## Abstract An omnibus permutation test of the overall null hypothesis can be used to assess the association of an entire ensemble of genetic markers with disease in case‐control studies. In this approach, __p__‐values for univariate marker‐specific Armitage trend tests are combined to form a scala

## Abstract Family‐based association tests (FBATs) provide simple and powerful tests to detect association between a genetic marker and a disease‐susceptibility locus, manifest in subjects by a phenotype or disease trait. Here we propose a new class of conditional tests for family‐based association

The central purpose of this study was to examine whether peer influence has a greater impact on adolescent substance use than parental influence. This was a comparative study that examined cross-cultural applicability by applying the established findings and theoretical suggestions, such as social l
