✦ Synopsis

Genetic Analysis Workshop data come from various sources, with possibly different ascertainment procedures in each. It is plausible that classical ascertainment models do not accurately describe the ascertainment process in each data source. For this reason, we review the biases which can arise from an incorrect specification on the ascertainment process and discuss their relevance for the GAWS data analysis.
