In this study, both a quantitative trait, P3 amplitude of the ERP, and a dichotomous variable, alcohol dependence by DSM-IV criteria, were the phenotypes tested. False discovery rate, FDR (Benjamini and Hochberg, 1995; Storey and Tibshirani, 2003), was calculated to correct for multiple comparisons using the method developed by Storey and Tibshirani (2003).
