## Abstract Genome‐wide case‐control association study is gaining popularity, thanks to the rapid development of modern genotyping technology. In such studies, population stratification is a potential concern especially when the number of study subjects is large as it can lead to seriously inflated

## 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 Hidden population substructure can cause population stratification and lead to false‐positive findings in population‐based genome‐wide association (GWA) studies. Given a large panel of markers scanned in a GWA study, it becomes increasingly feasible to uncover the hidden population subs

## 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
