A Fast Multi-Locus Ridge Regression Algorithm for High-Dimensional Genome-Wide Association Studies
The mixed linear model (MLM) has been widely used in genome-wide association study (GWAS) to dissect quantitative traits in human, animal, and plant genetics.

Low statistical power in biomedical science: a review of three human research domains [PDF]
Studies with low statistical power increase the likelihood that a statistically significant finding represents a false positive result. We conducted a review of meta-analyses of studies investigating the association of biological, environmental or ...

Reliability of animal counts and implications for the interpretation of trends
Population time series analysis is an integral part of conservation biology in the current context of global changes. To quantify changes in population size, wildlife counts only provide estimates because of various sources of error. When unaccounted for,

Evaluation of autumn mist‐netting data for monitoring passerine populations in interior Alaska
We evaluated the data from 2 autumn mist‐netting stations for monitoring passerine population trends and measuring the timing of migration. Migration‐monitoring stations were operated during autumn from 1993 to 2009 at 2 interior Alaska locations: in ...

Design sensitivity and statistical power in acceptability judgment experiments
Previous investigations into the validity of acceptability judgment data have focused almost exclusively on type I errors (or false positives) because of the consequences of such errors for syntactic theories (Sprouse & Almeida 2012; Sprouse et al ...
