GWAS of 126,559 Individuals Identifies Genetic Variants Associated with Educational Attainment

Cornelius A. Rietveld, +230 more
- 21 Jun 2013 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a genome-wide association study of educational attainment was conducted in a discovery sample of 101,069 individuals and a replication sample of 25,490 individuals, and three independent SNPs are genome wide significant (rs9320913, rs11584700, rs4851266).
Journal ArticleDOI

The association between lower educational attainment and depression owing to shared genetic effects? Results in ~25,000 subjects.

Wouter J. Peyrot, +324 more
- 26 Jun 2015 - 
TL;DR: An association of lower EA and MDD risk is confirmed, but this association was not because of measurable pleiotropic genetic effects, which suggests that environmental factors could be involved, for example, socioeconomic status.

GWAS of 126,559 individuals identifies genetic variants associated with educational attainment

Cornelius A. Rietveld, +201 more
TL;DR: Three genetic loci are found to explain variation associated with educational achievement and provide promising candidate SNPs for follow-up work, and effect size estimates can anchor power analyses in social-science genetics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polygenic scores associated with educational attainment in adults predict educational achievement and ADHD symptoms in children

Eveline L. de Zeeuw, +212 more
TL;DR: Polygenic scores confirm the genetic overlap between ADHD and educational achievement and indicate that one way to gain insight into genetic variants responsible for variation in ADHD is to include data on educational achievement, which are available at a larger scale.
Journal ArticleDOI

The ATXN1 and TRIM31 Genes Are Related to Intelligence in an ADHD Background: Evidence From a Large Collaborative Study Totaling 4,963 Subjects

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the publicly available data of 947 families participating in the International Multi-Centre ADHD Genetics (IMAGE) study to conduct an in silico fine mapping study of previously associated genomic locations, and to attempt replication of previously reported candidate genes for intelligence.
