Question about Confidence Interval for Standardized path coefficients (multivariate model)
Hi everyone, I am new here and learning OpenMX. I have a problem of getting confidence interval for standardized path coefficients. Could anyone please provide me the OpenMx language about this? I also provide my scripts below and hope someone can let me know what the problem is (the script about 'ciACE <- mxCI("VC[1:5, 16:30]")' ) or how to read the output about standardized CI.

Adding covariates to Cholesky script
Hi there, I am a new PhD student working on a project with twins for the first time. I've been provided with some older scripts from past students and some example code from a twin analysis workshop in Queensland that I haven't been able to attend yet (which I believe was run by Sarah Medland).

Sex Limitation Model Question
Hi,
I attended the Boulder workshop a couple years ago and am now trying my hand at sex limitation modeling. Currently, I am working on a same-sex twin pair sex limitation model for liability to alcohol use disorder. I've found measurement invariance and A and C are invariant. C was non-sig. and is constrained to zero. The AUD factor intercept is invariant. Can I interpret the sex difference in the AUD means in terms of greater genetic risk for AUD in the males?

ACE including non-twin siblings
Dear all,
I'm trying to adapt ACE heritability model to include both twins and their non-twin siblings. The data used for the analysis are imaging-derived phenotypes from the human connectome project (HCP) which includes both MZ and DZ twin pairs as well as their non-twin siblings for a subset of twins. Would be really helpful if anyone could answer a few questions.

Multivariate cholesky model
Hi,
I have a dataset of twins on 4 time-points. I can fit the Multivariate cholesky decompositon model with ACE components. It considers unstrcutured covariance matrices for A, C and E component. I was wondering if its possible to restrict it to a special structure? Like, say compound symmetric or AR1.
Thanks

Latent Growth Model and distal outcome
Hi,
I would like to fit the twin model in the enclosed figure, but I am not sure if this is feasible.
Can someone help me understanding if the model is identified?
In case, are there any exemples of R code for this model?
Thanks a lot
M
