Record added by Jurg Ott (the original Rockefeller list)

Full Name

Power and Sample-Size Calculations for the TDT and ASP Tests

Version

1.1 (April 2003)

Description

Power and sample-size calculations for the TDT and ASP tests under a wide variety of ascertainment schemes. Uses the flexible genetic model of McGinnis. Most calculations are exact rather than asymptotic.
