Structural Equation Modeling. ‌ The freely accessible software “Mx” 3 and R package “OpenMx” 4 offer a specialized structural equation modeling (SEM) framework to allow flexible model definition 3▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇/mx/ 4▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇/‌ Twin 2 and parameter estimation for variance components, both of which are commonly used in analyzing genetic data for heritability inference. The SEM ACE model for univariate twin data can be commonly displayed as a path diagram, shown in Figure 3.1, where the influence caused by the latent variables a, c and e can be described by the path coefficients √A, √C and √E respectively (▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇, 2002). .
