An Association Test for Multiple Traits Based on the Generalized Kendall’s Tau [PDF]
Journal of the American Statistical Association, 2010 In many genetics studies, especially in the investigation of mental illness and behavioral disorders, it is common for researchers to collect multiple phenotypes to characterize the complex disease of interest. It may be advantageous to analyze those phenotypic measurements simultaneously if they share a similar genetic mechanism.
