Fulker, D. W.; And Others
Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, v3 n3-4 p299-313 Dec 1991
Applies an extension of an earlier multiple regression model for twin analysis to the problem of detecting linkage in a quantitative trait. Detects a number of possible linkages, indicating that the approach is effective. Discusses detecting genotype-environment interaction and the issue of power. (RS)
