bivariate-BMI-hypertension.R [6] | 22.46 KB |
Hello, everyone:
I'm running a bivariate twin model to estimate the correlation between a continuous variable (BMI) and a binary variable (CHD).
I have two questions:
First, i fund the means between MZ and DZ twins are different, do i need to constrain them with the same value in the ACE model;
Second, the p value between the saturated model and ACE model was<0.05, what does this mean. Can i use ACE model to estimate the genetic and environmental correlation.
Thank you so much for your help.
