Abstract Concerned with a particular type of genetic model for the analysis of longitudinal phenotypic data, namely the simplex model. Introduces two important generalizations of the genetic simplex model. Considers the estimation of latent time-dependent profiles of genetic and environmental influences for each individual subject. The simplex model will be generalized to include latent genetic and environmental trends.
