Repeatability refers to the correlation between measurements of the same trait for an individual measured more than once. It ranges from 0 to 1. Repeatability is influenced by both permanent environmental effects, which consistently impact all measurements of an individual, as well as temporary environmental effects that vary between measurements. Heritability instead refers to the degree to which offspring inherit traits from their parents. While heritability estimates the genetic influence, repeatability captures both genetic and permanent environmental influences. Repeatability can be estimated using analysis of variance to partition phenotypic variance into within and between individual components. Higher repeatability means past performance is a better predictor of future performance.
