2 Overall Questions to be Answered oes a trait of interest cluster among relate dividuals? an clustering be explained by genetic or nvironmental effects? hat is the best way to explain the degree t hich genetic and environmental effects aff trait?

6 Classical Twin Studies Basic Background The Classical Twin Study (CTS) uses MZ and DZ twins reared together MZ twins share 100% of their genes DZ twins share on average 50% of their genes Expectation- Genetic factors are assumed
7 Classical Twin Study Assumptions MZ twins are genetically identical Equal Environments of MZ and DZ pairs
8 Basic Data Assumptions Z and DZ twins are sampled from the sam opulation, therefore we expect :- Equal means/variances in Twin 1 and Tw Equal means/variances in MZ and DZ twi urther assumptions would need to be teste f we introduce male twins and opposite sex win pairs
