The Asymptotic Variance of the Interclass Correlation Coefficient
在家庭规模可变且服从正态分布的假设下,推导了子女间组间相关系数的最大似然估计量的渐近方差公式,对遗传学和统计学研究者有用。
In genetics, the term interclass correlation has been used to refer to the parent-offspring and son-daughter correlations within families. Under the assumption of variable family sizes and normality, we derive the asymptotic variance of the maximum likelihood estimator of the son-daughter interclass correlation.
