  1. Results from a trivariate ACE model (see Fig. 1). 95% confidence intervals (CIs) are in parentheses. Shared environmental (C) parameter estimates are not included as they were non-significant in the multivariate model fit statistics (see Table 2). A Additive genetic parameters; E Nonshared environmental parameters.
