problems with simple ACE model

Forums
OpenMx General Help
Dear experts,

I am running a simple ACE model for twin analysis with age and gender as confounds (115 DZ pairs and 60 MZ pairs). I use the model from International Statistical Genetics Workshop:
[https://ibg.colorado.edu/cdrom2022/day2/00_ACEvc_contin.R](https://ibg.colorado.edu/cdrom2022/day2/00_ACEvc_contin.R "https://ibg.colorado.edu/cdrom2022/day2/00_ACEvc_contin.R")

When I run the model, I get the following results:

five-factor model

Forums
OpenMx General Help
Hi,

I'm using OpenMx to run a five-factor CFA model for 14 variables. "phenfile0" is the dataset and I used its 3rd to 16th columns as a input with the colnames of "y1" to "y14".
"y12" "y13" "y14" belong to "F1"; "y9" "y10" "y11" belong to "F2"; "y6" "y7" "y8" belong to F3; "y3" "y4" "y5" belong to F4; and "y1" "y2" belong to F5.
**Issue**: the output gave a larger SE for some loadings. I'm not sure if the code is correct. Thanks for your help!

how to compare two correlation matrices

Forums
OpenMx General Help
Hi,
I'm trying to compare two correlation matrices from a study of two different samples of people from different cultures. These matrices aren't symmetrical because they represent the correlations of two different sets of psychological tests. Is there a way to do this in OpenMx?
Thanks in advance for your help.

ACE and ADE model returns the same AIC

Forums
OpenMx General Help
Hello everyone:

I'm currently working on a project with twin data, and I encountered some weird results when fitting ACE and ADE models with OpenMx.
I fit both bivariate ACE, AE, and ADE models based on the script from Dr.Hermine Maes' website. However, our model returns unusual results. Specifically, the AIC values for ACE and ADE are the same. Also, the parameter estimates for the ADE model do not match the phenotypic correlations. Has anyone encountered similar problem before? Any kind of help is appreciated!!

How to get estimates of latent random slopes and random intercept

Forums
OpenMx General Help
Hello I fit a random slope and random intercept hlm and I am wondering how to get the latent values of the random slope and intercept. From what I can tell the issue is that the latent variables exist in second level so the function mxFactorScores does not know what to do. In this example U_00 is my random intercept and U_01 is my random slope.

Here is code to simulate HLM data

library(dplyr)
library(tidyr)
library(OpenMx)
