For the hypothetical case-control study, we considered three different models in our simulation experiment with the frequencies listed as θAB, θAb, θaB, and θab. These models are (1) case group: .4, .3, .2, .1; control group: .25, .25, .25, .25; (2) case group: .4, .1, .1, .4; control group: .25, .25, .25, .25; and (3) case group: .4, .1, .2, .3; control group: .3, .1, .4, .2. α = type I error rate.
