Female mice exhibit less overall variance, with a higher proportion of structured variance, than males at multiple timescales of continuous body temperature and locomotive activity records

Biology of Sex Differences, 2022
Highlights Female mice do not show more overall variance in temperature or activity than do males. When measuring rodents, phase of the daily rhythm accounts for a substantial amount of the overall variance.

Using photographs for rating severity degrees of clinical appearance in research mice enables valid discrimination of extreme but not mild and moderate conditions: A pilot study.

PLoS ONE, 2023
To ensure good animal welfare in laboratory research and in stockbreeding severity ratings of the animals´ wellbeing are essential. The current study investigated how valid raters can evaluate different severity degrees of clinical appearance and how ...

Uncovering hidden variance: pair-wise SNP analysis accounts for additional variance in nicotine dependence [PDF]

Human Genetics, 2010
Results from genome-wide association studies of complex traits account for only a modest proportion of the trait variance predicted to be due to genetics. We hypothesize that joint analysis of polymorphisms may account for more variance. We evaluated this hypothesis on a case-control smoking phenotype by examining pairs of nicotinic receptor single ...

Variance component model to account for sample structure in genome-wide association studies

Nature Genetics, 2010
Although genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified numerous loci associated with complex traits, imprecise modeling of the genetic relatedness within study samples may cause substantial inflation of test statistics and possibly spurious ...

Coalition Formation in a Legislative Voting Game [PDF]

, 2013
We experimentally investigate the Jackson-Moselle (2002) model where legislators bargain over policy proposals and the allocation of private goods. Key comparative static predictions of the model hold as policy proposals shift in the predicted direction ...
