A model for comparative ratings in studies of within-family differences.

Behavior genetics - 1 Nov 1991

Eaves L J, Neale M C, Meyer J M

Abstract excerpt

Comparative ratings between pairs of siblings or other relatives are commonly used to refine measures of intrafamily variation. A simple model, based on signal detection theory, is proposed which shows how comparative ratings can be used to estimate within-pair variances of true scores, which can, in turn, be modeled with any of the conventional approaches to partitioning genetic and environmental variance within...
