Effective population size for culturally evolving traits.
Population size has long been considered an important driver of cultural diversity and complexity. Results from population genetics, however, demonstrate that in populations with complex demographic structure or mode of inheritance, it is not the census ...

A Robust Effect Size Index [PDF]
Effect size indices are useful tools in study design and reporting because they are unitless measures of association strength that do not depend on sample size. Existing effect size indices are developed for particular parametric models or population parameters. Here, we propose a robust effect size index based on M-estimators.

Responding to a related pair of measurements is often expressed as a single discrimination ratio. Authors have used various discrimination ratios; yet, little information exists to guide their choice. A second use of ratios is to correct for the influence of a nuisance variable on the measurement of interest.

Effective population size [PDF]
What is it? An aid to calculation in population genetics, introduced by Sewall Wright. The rate of change of the genetic make-up of a population by genetic drift – fluctuations in allele frequencies caused by random sampling – is inversely related to the effective population size, Ne. Ne is measured with reference to an ideal ‘Wright–Fisher’ population.

The hierarchical island model revisited
Formulae were derived for the genetic differentiation between populations within a metapopulation (FSM), and between metapopulations (FMT) as functions of migration and mutation rates, size and number of populations and metapopulations. We show that FMT =
