TL;DR: This article used genomic structural equation modeling and prior genome-wide association studies (GWASs) of educational attainment and cognitive test performance to estimate SNP associations with educational attainment variation that is independent of cognitive ability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Twins Early Development Study: A Genetically Sensitive Investigation into Behavioral and Cognitive Development from Infancy to Emerging Adulthood.
Kaili Rimfeld,Margherita Malanchini,Thomas P Spargo,Gemma Spickernell,Saskia Selzam,Andrew McMillan,Philip S. Dale,Thalia C. Eley,Robert Plomin +8 more
TL;DR: The Twins Early Development Study is a longitudinal twin study that recruited over 16,000 twin-pairs born between 1994 and 1996 in England and Wales through national birth records and actively fosters scientific collaborations.
Journal ArticleDOI
"Same but different": Associations between multiple aspects of self-regulation, cognition, and academic abilities.
Margherita Malanchini,Laura E. Engelhardt,Andrew D. Grotzinger,K. Paige Harden,Elliot M. Tucker-Drob +4 more
TL;DR: This project comprehensively examined the structure of associations between multiple self-regulatory constructs stemming from the cognitive and personality psychology traditions to estimate how these constructs related to mathematics and reading ability beyond psychometric measures of processing speed and fluid intelligence.
Journal ArticleDOI
The stability of educational achievement across school years is largely explained by genetic factors
Kaili Rimfeld,Margherita Malanchini,Margherita Malanchini,Eva Krapohl,Laurie J. Hannigan,Philip S. Dale,Robert Plomin +6 more
TL;DR: The finding of genetically driven stability of school achievement should provide additional motivation to identify children in need of interventions as early as possible, as the problems are likely to remain throughout the school years.

TL;DR: Genomic Structural Equation Modelling and results of prior genome-wide association studies of EA and cognitive test performance are used to estimate SNP associations with variation in EA that is independent of cognitive ability.
