Using Multimodel Inference/Model Averaging to Model Causes of Covariation Between Variables in Twins.

Behavior genetics - 1 Jan 2021

Maes Hermine H, Neale Michael C, Kirkpatrick Robert M, Kendler Kenneth S

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To explore and apply multimodel inference to test the relative contributions of latent genetic, environmental and direct causal factors to the covariation between two variables with data from the classical twin design by estimating model-averaged parameters. METHODS: Behavior genetics is concerned with understanding the causes of variation in phenotypes and the causes of covariation between two or more...
