Positive values indicate that the 3' codons appear in the genome more times than expected (good context) while negative values indicate that the 3' codons appear fewer times than expected assuming a random distribution (bad context). Residual values give a quantitative indication of the context bias, where values falling within the -3 to +3 interval are not statistically significant (no bias). See also Figure 2.
