Results from AE models are presented in cases where the shared environment (C) was positive, but nevertheless accounted for less than 5 percent of the phenotypic variance. rmz = Monozygotic twin correlation; rdz = Dizygotic twin correlation; A = Additive genetic influences; C = Shared environmental influences; E = Unique environmental influences.
