Testing for the presence of genetic variance in factors of face measurements of Belgian twins.

Annals of human biology - 1 Jan 2000

Hauspie R C, Susanne C, Defrise-Gussenhoven E

Abstract excerpt

Factor analysis with VARIMAX rotation was used to analyse 15 face measurements in Belgian same-sexed twins, aged 18-25 years: 39 dizygotic and 57 monozygotic male pairs and 42 dizygotic and 67 monozygotic female paris. According to Christian's model, we used the ratio of the within-mean squares of dizygotic and monozygotic pairs to test for the presence of a genetic component in the variance of the facial...
