Equivalence of variance components between standard and recursive genetic models using LDL' transformations.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Recursive models are a category of structural equation models that propose a causal relationship between traits. These models are more parameterized than multiple trait models, and they require imposing restrictions on the parameter space to ensure statistical identification. Nevertheless, in certain situations, the likelihood of recursive models and multiple trait models are equivalent. Consequently,...
