Investigating Associations Between Developmental Integration and Physiological Stress
ABSTRACT Objectives Integration, or patterns of correlation between structural elements, is of interest in diverse fields. Analysis is, however, generally limited to group‐level comparisons. This paper presents a novel combination of methods to quantify developmental integration (i.e., patterns of covariation which arise during growth) so that a ...
