| Sintesi≠ | A Bayesian epigenome-wide association study (Bayesian EWAS) scans hundreds of thousands of DNA methylation sites across the genome to identify those statistically associated with an educational outcome — such as cognitive ability, attainment, or socioeconomic exposure during schooling. Unlike classical frequentist EWAS, the Bayesian framework incorporates prior biological knowledge to compute posterior probabilities of association, improving power and reducing false discoveries when applied to complex educational phenotypes. | Mediation analysis is a statistical procedure that tests whether the effect of an independent variable X on an outcome Y operates wholly or partly through a third variable M, called the mediator. Formalised by Baron and Kenny in 1986, it decomposes the total effect of X on Y into a direct path (c′) and an indirect path (a × b), quantifying how much of the relationship is carried by the mediating mechanism. |
