Dear Sir, I have performed selscan --xpehh for my data and found xpehh value from the repective program. I am interested in P-Value is there any way to calculate the same?

Hello, After genome wide normalization, the scores are approximately distributed as a standard normal. One option is to treat the normalized scores as Z scores and compute a p-value from there.

Thankyou so much sir. I did normalized the xpehh score and able to get p-value.
