Abstract excerpt
There is a long history of fitting biometrical structural-equation models (SEMs) in the pregenomic behavioral-genetics literature of twin, family, and adoption studies. Recently, a method has emerged for estimating biometrical variance-covariance components based not upon the expected degree of genetic resemblance among relatives, but upon the observed degree of genetic resemblance among unrelated individuals for...
