Age-dependent traits: a new statistical model to separate within- and between-individual effects.

The American naturalist - 1 May 2006

van de Pol M, Verhulst S

Abstract excerpt

Evolutionary questions regarding aging address patterns of within-individual change in traits during a lifetime. However, most studies report associations between age and, for example, reproduction based on cross-sectional comparisons, which may be confounded with progressive changes in phenotypic population composition. Unbiased estimation of patterns of age-dependent reproduction (or other traits) requires...
