Heritability Coverage of Standard Biometric Models under various Phenotypic Architectures

2019-06-21

Abstract excerpt

<p>The behavioural scientist who requires an estimate of narrow heritability, h^2, will conduct a twin study, and input the resulting estimated covariance matrices into a particular mode of estimation, the latter derived under supposition of the standard biometric model (SBM). It is known that the standard biometric model can be expected to misrepresent the phenotypic (genetic) architecture of human traits. The im...
