Abstract The Second Genetic Analysis Workshop was held October 30, 1983, at the American Society of Human Genetics meetings in Norfolk, Virginia. Ten groups of investigators analyzed three sets of pedigrees generated by computer simulation. A summary of the workshop is presented. In this overall description by the workshop organizers, the rationale for the choice of problems and the characteristics of the three data sets are discussed, and the ten analyses are briefly summarized and compared. Following this general summary are brief descriptions of the analyses of each group of workshop participants, in alphabetical order by senior author.
