simSNP: Simulated data of SNPs

Description

simSNP is a data.frame containing a bivariate outcome as in a case-control study, a continous covariate and 10 simulated SNPs. SNPs 1 and 2 have an interaction effect on the outcome. Penetrances are specified as in model 1 of Ritchie et al.(2003)

simSNPcont is a data.frame containing a continuous normally distributed outcome and 10 simulated SNPs, where SNPs 1 and 2 have an interaction effect on the outcome.

Usage

data(simSNP) data(simSNPcont)

Arguments

Format

simSNP is a data frame with 400 observations on the following 12 variables.
Y
Outcome: 1=case, 0=control
X
Age
snp.1
SNP genotype data 1
snp.2
SNP genotype data 2
...
.....
snp.10
SNP genotype data 10
SNP values are coded as: 0=common homozygous, 1=heterozygous, 2=variant homozygous. simSNPcont has a continous outcome and the same SNPs.
