Gene discovery and polygenic prediction from a genome-wide association study of educational attainment in 1.1 million individuals

James J. Lee, +94 more
- 23 Jul 2018 - 
TL;DR: A joint (multi-phenotype) analysis of educational attainment and three related cognitive phenotypes generates polygenic scores that explain 11–13% of the variance ineducational attainment and 7–10% ofthe variance in cognitive performance, which substantially increases the utility ofpolygenic scores as tools in research.

Inhibition and impulsivity: Behavioral and neural basis of response control

TL;DR: This review will review the current models of behavioral inhibition along with their expression via underlying brain regions, including those involved in the activation of the brain's emergency 'brake' operation, those engaged in more controlled and sustained inhibitory processes and other ancillary executive functions.

Parsimonious Mixed Models

TL;DR: This work shows that failure to converge typically is not due to a suboptimal estimation algorithm, but is a consequence of attempting to fit a model that is too complex to be properly supported by the data, irrespective of whether estimation is based on maximum likelihood or on Bayesian hierarchical modeling with uninformative or weakly informative priors.

Analyzing Reaction Times

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue for empirical exibility with respect to the choice of transformation for the RTs, and advocate minimal a-priori data trimming, combined with model criticism.

Horse-race model simulations of the stop-signal procedure

TL;DR: A set of evidence-based guidelines for using the stop-signal paradigm, derived from a series of simulations, indicate that, under most conditions, the latency, but not variability, of response inhibition can be reliably estimated.
