We applied several novel tests for association and linkage in the presence of association to the Genetic Analysis Workshop 11 Problem 1 data set. Our analyses included a Hardy‐Weinberg test for association between a marker and a disease susceptibility locus, a Bayesian transmission/disequilibrium test, and a Bayesian case‐control test. Positive results for each of these methods require the presence of population association between the marker and a disease susceptibility locus.
