Avoiding pitfalls in estimating heritability with the common options approach.

Scientific reports - 5 Feb 2014

Danchin Etienne, Wajnberg Eric, Wagner Richard H

Abstract excerpt

In many circumstances, heritability estimates are subject to two potentially interacting pitfalls: the spatial and the regression to the mean (RTM) fallacies. The spatial fallacy occurs when the set of potential movement options differs among individuals according to where individuals depart. The RTM fallacy occurs when extreme measurements are followed by measurements that are closer to the mean. We simulated...
