Statistical inference in mixed models and analysis of twin and family data.

Biometrics - 1 Sept 2011

Wang Xueqin, Guo Xiaobo, He Mingguang, Zhang Heping

Abstract excerpt

Analysis of data from twin and family studies provides the foundation for studies of disease inheritance. The development of advanced theory and computational software for general linear models has generated considerable interest for using mixed-effect models to analyze twin and family data, as a computationally more convenient and theoretically more sound alternative to the classical structure equation modeling....
