Cross-sectional twin correlations were similar for MZ twins and DZ twins for epochs 1 and 2 (Table 1), suggesting that shared environmental (C) variance contributes to manifestation of these phenotypes, with minimal genetic influence (A). However, from epochs 3–6, the correlation between MZ twins was substantially higher than between DZ twins, suggesting increasing importance of genetic factors and decreasing relevance of C factors.
