Q & K Model
The Q3 & K1 Model tab is shown below:
A different Q&K Model tab is generated for each combination of Q and K matrices. Each of these tabs contains one each of the following elements for each trait variable:
One Model Fitting Information table
This table shows the values of model information criteria for a specific combination of Q and K matrices. These values are displayed on the Model Fitting Information plot alongside with other combinations of Q and K matrices and they can be used to compare and identify better fitting models to the current data
One Fixed Effects table
This table shows the parameter estimates of all fixed effects present in a specific model. Fixed effects include the intercept, the Q matrix variables, and any additional Fixed Effects that might have been entered in the Model Variables tab of the process dialog .
One Random Effects table
This table shows the BLUPs estimates of all random effects present in a specific model. Random effects include the K matrix variables, and any additional Random Effects that might have been entered in the Model Variables tab of the process dialog.
One Covariance Parameters table
This table shows the covariance parameter estimates of all random effects present in a specific model. Random effects include the residual variance , the variance attributed to the K matrix, and the variance of any additional Random Effects that might have been entered in the Model Variables tab of the process dialog.
