Summary of Results for the LPPG Example, Shown in Figure 5
| Individuals Considered | Individuals 1–3 | Individuals 1, 2, and 4 |
| Reported relationship | Full sibs | Two sibs (1,2) + niece (4) |
| Most likely relationship | Two sibs (1,2) + half-sib (3) | Three full sibs |
| Second-most-likely relationship | Two full sibs (1,3) + half-sib (2) | Two sibs (1,4) + half-sib (2) |
| Log-likelihood differencea | 36.3 | 62.8 |
| No. of Mendelian errorsb | 42 | 1 |
a
