Table 2.

Simulation results of type I error rates of the proposed F-tests of the fixed effect models based on sequence data generated by COSI, when the genetic variant functions were taken as additive. The results of “Basis of both GVF and β(t)” were based on the model (3), the results of “FPCA” were based on the model (4), and the results of “Basis of beta-smooth only” were based on the model (6), respectively

Nominal level α Sample size Basis of both GVF and β(t)
FPCA Basis of beta-smooth only
