The common complex diseases such as asthma are an important focus of genetic research, and studies based on large numbers of simple pedigrees ascertained from population-based sampling frames are becoming commonplace. Many of the genetic and environmental factors causing these diseases are unknown a
## Abstract Studies of geneβtrait associations for complex diseases often involve multiple traits that may vary by genotype groups or patterns. Such traits are usually manifestations of lowerβdimensional latent factors or disease syndromes. We illustrate the use of a variance components factor (VCF
