Table 3. Null simulation: empirical per-SNP type-I error rates from 1,000 permutations of case-control labels of 2 K individuals genotyped at 80 K SNPs.

Method Error rate (per million SNPs)
Additive only Additive, dominant and recessive terms
NEG 6.44 12.8
DE 6.39 12.7
ATT 6.48 -

In each case the nominal per-SNP type-I error rate for the additive-only model was 10−5 ( = 10 per million SNPs).
