Note: Values in brackets are 95% credible intervals. “Sex” indicates difference in females relative to males; “Age” is the effect in years; “IR” is an individual's internal relatedness value; “Season” is the effect of breeding season relative to nonbreeding; and Age*IR is the interaction. Variance component estimates (for additive genetic variance V A and shared environment variance V S), heritability (h 2) and the proportion of variance attributed to a shared environment effect (ICCS) are all presented on both latent and observed data‐scale. Parameters estimates were converted to the observed data‐scale using the QG glmm package (see Section 2 for details of models). N = 324 individuals.
