Using factor scores to detect G X E interactive origin of "pure" genetic or environmental factors obtained in genetic covariance structure analysis.

Abstract excerpt

Moment expressions for individual factor scores can serve as simple tests for the presence of a particular class of interaction factors that are disguised as pure genetic and/or environmental factors. That is, individual genetic and environmental factor scores may be used to construct fourth-order moments of these factors in order to test whether a common genetic or environmental factor in the multivariate...
