| Abstract |
Illustrates the methods of nonlinear factor analysis as developed by R. P. McDonald and applies the methods to the interaction of genotype and within-family environmental influences. Simulated twin data are used to illustrate how this type of interaction may be detected and estimated. It is shown that estimates of genetic influences are not affected by genotype * environment interaction.
