Chunk #59 — 3. Results — 3.2. Genetic effects and gene × sex interactions — 3.2.2. Correspondence between association trajectories — Test of intermodal correspondences
There were 162 correspondence measures for the intermodal data, each of which was assigned a value equal to the sum of the number of p-values in the two modalities less than the threshold, in this case .0136. Since there was only one occurrence of simultaneous significance for females, analysis was performed only on data from males. As observed, there were 18 2’s, 44 1’s, and 22 0’s. A permutation test of the null hypothesis that the duplets came from a non SNP-specific combination of each of the same age range-scalp location-sex combinations showed that the null hypothesis could be rejected at the p < .01 level. Again this is the result that there are more pairs in which both values were the same than could be expected from a random, non SNP-specific pairing.
