Abstract

It will be demonstrated that the δ measure (attributable risk) of Bengtsson & Thomson (1982) can be used in a wide variety of cases to determine which of a number of HLA antigens associated with a particular disease allele has the strongest genetic association. Tests of significance and confidence intervals for the δ measure will be discussed.
