In the linear random effects model, when distributional assumptions such as normality of the error variables cannot be justified, moments may serve as alternatives to ...
The linear mixed model (LMM) is now routinely used to estimate heritability. Unfortunately, as we demonstrate, LMM estimates of heritability can be inflated when using a standard model. To help reduce ...
