DESCRIPTION
Modeling Interaction Between Family Members. When you are by yourself and have no one to ask. Thank Tim York. So Far:. Have assumed people don’t affect each other May not be true. Examples. Do sibs (twins) affect each other? Peer effects? Spousal interaction? Mother-child interaction?. - PowerPoint PPT PresentationTRANSCRIPT

So Far:
Have assumed people don’t affect each other
May not be true

Examples
• Do sibs (twins) affect each other?• Peer effects?• Spousal interaction?• Mother-child interaction?

THINK!
• How do you think the world works?• How do you translate “how the world works” into:• design (choice of subjects)• measurement• model (diagram, algebra)• data (expectations for statistics)• analysis (code, decision) OpenMx can help you do the nuts and bolts.

Two Examples
• Twin and sibling Interaction• Assortative mating and spousal interaction

Approach
• Start without interaction• Figure out covariances between relatives• “Include interaction”• Use OpenMx to figure out what happens if….

What is structure after interaction?

What is structure AFTER interaction?
S*= (I-B)-1S(I-B)’-1
Where B=
( 0 b12 ) b21 0 Note: Compare this with the LISREL model

RUN AN EXAMPLE…

Now Try It Yourself!Work out expected covariances and correlations
• For different values of b (symmetric)• Use positive and negative values of b• For models with and without A• Try to predict your answers• Summarize the principal implications of social
interaction for the data• Under what circumstances are you
likely/unlikely to detect interactions?

Now…Think about other worlds
• What would you expect for singletons• What do you think would happen in larger
sibships (3,4…siblings)?• How would you model the process?
TRY IT!!!!

What does this model assume?
![Page 22: Modeling Interaction Between Family Members](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062813/56816625550346895dd980ad/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
What does this model assume?
• Both twins married• Mutual effect of husbands and wives
symmetric• “Phenotypic” assortment for initial trait• Process has reached developmental
equilibrium - implied by (I-B)-1 - limit of infinite series of interactions.
