1 Continuously moderated effects of A,C, and E in the twin design Conor V Dolan & Michel Nivard Boulder Twin Workshop March, 208
2 Standard AE model s 2 A or.5s 2 A A E A E s 2 A s 2 E s 2 A s 2 E m pheno Twin pheno Twin 2 m Ph i m = A i + E i
3 Standard AE model: Alt notation. V A = s 2 A V A or.5v A A E A E V A V E V A V E m pheno Twin pheno Twin 2 m Ph i m = A i + E i
4 Standard AE model or.5 A E A E a e a e m pheno Twin pheno Twin 2 m Ph i m = a*a i + e*e i
5 When we fit this model we assume that the model holds in the population of interest (z=zygosity, mz or dz; r z = or.5) S z = s 2 + s A 2 E r z s 2 A r z s 2 A s 2 + s A 2 E m = m m Phenotypic variable ~ N(m, s 2 + s A 2 E) normally distributed with mean m and variance s 2 + s A 2 E
6 What if we have two populations of interest, e.g., males and females? * main effect of sex on phenotype m f m m? * sex by A, E interactions (sex as moderator of A,E variances): s 2 Af s 2 Am and / or s 2 Ef s 2 Em? If we ignore the source of heterogeneity the estimates of m, s 2 E, s 2 A are biased... BAD!
7 What to do? Include source of heterogeneity, moderator, in the model: Main effects of moderator m f m m? Interaction effects s 2 Af s 2 Am and / or s 2 Ef s 2 Em? If moderator is binary multigroup model If moderator is continuous moderation model

9 see What is moderation? What is GxE interaction
10 Environmental Dispersion Phenotypic scores Variance of E given G score Genetic level (score on A) Ph i m = a*a i + e*e i Homoskedastic model: e is constant over levels of A: environmental effects are the same given any A
11 Phenotypic y scores Environmental Dispersion Variance of E given G score Genetic level (score on A) x G x E as genetic control of sensitivity to different environments: heteroskedasticity e=f e (A) or s 2 E =g e (A) Environmental effects (E) systematically vary with A
12 yphenotypic scores Conditional variance of A given E x Environmental level (score on E) G x E as environmental control of genetic effects: heteroskedasticity (a=f a (E) or s 2 A =g a (E)).
13 Phenotypic scores y Genetic variance or (and) Environmental variance given M x Moderator level (score on moderator) Moderation of effects (A,C,E) by measured moderator M: heteroskedasticity (a=f a (M), c=f c (M), e=f e (M) or (s 2 A =g a (M), s 2 C =g c (M), s 2 E =g e (M)).).
14 Is the magnitude of genetic influences on ADHD the same in boys and girls? s 2 Af = s 2 Am? Sex X A interaction: Sex moderation of A effects
15 Other examples binary moderators A effects moderated by marital status: Unmarried women show greater levels of genetic influence on depression (Heath et al., 998). A effects moderated by religious upbringing: religious upbringing diminishes A effects on the personality trait of disinhibition (Boomsma et al., 999). Binary moderator: multigroup approach
16 Continuous moderation Age as a moderator of standardized A, C, E variance components (Age x A,C,E interaction)
17 Genes (A) Shared Environment (C) Nonshared Environment (E) Variance Age (Years) Tucker-Drob & Bates (205)
18 A,C,E effects moderated by SES
19 Continuous Moderators not amenable to multigroup approach treat the moderator as continuous (OpenMx and umx)
20 Standard ACE model or.5 A C E A C E a c e a c e m pheno Twin pheno Twin 2 m
21 Standard ACE model + Main effect on Means A C E A C E a c e a c e Pheno Twin Pheno Twin 2 m+ β M M m+β M M2
22 res res pheno Twin m pheno Twin m+ β M M M β M equivalent The regression of Phenotype on M... pheno = m+ β M M + res What is left is the residual (res), which is subject to (moderated) ACE modeling.
23 Summary stats (no moderator) Means vector Covariance matrix (r z = r = or ½) * e c a c a r e c a m m
24 Allowing for a main effect of the moderator M Means vector (conditional on M) Covariance matrix (r = or r=½) i M i M m M m 2 M * e c a c a r e c a
25 Standard ACE model + main effect and effect on A path A C E A C E a+ X M c e a+ X M 2 c e m+ β M M m+ β M M2 Twin Twin 2 M has main effect + moderation of A effect (a + M M )
26 A C E a+ X M c e m+ β M M Twin If M is binary (0/) (instead of continuous) M =0 mean= m & A effect = a M = mean= m+ β M & A effect = a+ X variance = (a+ X ) 2
27 A C E A C E a+ X M c+ Y M e+ Z M a+ X M 2 c+ Y M 2 e+ Z M 2 m+ M M Twin Twin 2 m+ M M2 Main Effect on phenotype (linear regression) Effect path loadings: Moderation effects (A x M, C x M, E x M interaction)
28 Expected variances Standard Twin Model: Var(P) = a 2 + c 2 + e 2 Moderation Model: Var(P M) = (a + β X M) 2 + (c + β Y M) 2 + (e + β Z M) 2 P M mean the phenotype given a value on M or the phenotype conditional on M
29 Expected MZ / DZ covariances Cov(P,P 2 M) MZ = (a + β X M) 2 + (c + β Y M) 2 Cov(P,P 2 M) DZ = 0.5*(a + β X M) 2 + (c + β Y M) 2
30 Var (P M) = (a + β X M) 2 + (c + β Y M) 2 + (e + β Z M) 2 h st2 M = (a + β X M) 2 / Var (P M) c st2 M = (c + β Y M) 2 / Var (P M) e st2 M = (e + β Z M) 2 / Var (P M) (h st2 M + c st2 M + e st2 M) = Standardized conditional on value of M.. WARNING h st2 M can vary with M while β X = 0!

44 Non linear moderation? Extend the model from linear to linear + quadratic. E.g., e c + b ec *M + b ec2 *M 2
45 What about > number of moderators? Extend the model accordingly e c + b ec *SES + b ec2 *AGE With possible interaction: e c + b ec *SES + b ec2 *AGE + b ec3 *(AGE *SES)
