Hi, I would like to confirm a part of the results generated in mets. When running as below

< twinlm(bmi ~ 1, data=d,......) > In the output (type=ae or ace ...) < variance decomposition A 0.90 ( 95%CI 0.82 - 0.95) .......... Broad sen.....0.90......> I can interprete 0.90 as my h2 heritability not ordinary h

Many Thanks

I think "Not exactly" would be answer, going by a reading of familial aggregation analysis in statistical genetics texts. Both values would be close based on an assumptions about dominant effects
