from unit correlation (e2 = 1–rMZ) (Posthuma et al., 2003). Many twin studies do not specifically examine or test for nonadditive genetic effects and instead report heritability estimates based on additive effects only. However, some twin studies compare models with additive effects and nonadditive effects versus models with additive genetic effects and shared environment.
