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 Association mapping based on family studies can identify genes that influence complex human traits while providing protection against population stratification. Because no gene is likely to have a very large effect on a complex trait, most family studies have limited power. Among the co
