Individual Fitness and the Measurement of Univariate Selection
Keyword(s):
This chapter examines various estimates of the fitness of an individual, focusing on statistical issues and potential sources of bias. With estimates of individual fitness in hand, one can then search for fitness-trait association, and this topic comprises the second half of the chapter. A number of metrics for describing how the phenotypic distribution of a trait is perturbed by selection are examined, again along with a discussion of statistical issues and sources of bias.
