Statistical correction of the Winner's Curse explains replication variability in quantitative trait genome-wide association studies
C Palmer, I Pe'er - PLoS genetics, 2017 - journals.plos.org
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified hundreds of SNPs responsible for
variation in human quantitative traits. However, genome-wide-significant associations often …

Interactions between socioeconomic status and components of variation in cognitive ability
E Turkheimer, EE Horn - Behavior genetics of cognition across the lifespan, 2013 - Springer
We have proposed that differences in the heritability of cognitive ability as a function of
socioeconomic status (SES) be called the Scarr-Rowe interaction, after the investigator who …

Genome-wide association study SNPs in the human genome diversity project populations: does selection affect unlinked SNPs with shared trait associations?
AM Casto, MW Feldman - PLoS genetics, 2011 - journals.plos.org
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified more than 2,000 trait-SNP
associations, and the number continues to increase. GWAS have focused on traits with …

Pleiotropy across academic subjects at the end of compulsory education
Research has shown that genes play an important role in educational achievement. A key
question is the extent to which the same genes affect different academic subjects before and …

Estimating effects of parents' cognitive and non-cognitive skills on offspring education using polygenic scores
Understanding how parents' cognitive and non-cognitive skills influence offspring education
is essential for educational, family and economic policy. We use genetics (GWAS-by …

Common genetic variants associated with cognitive performance identified using the proxy-phenotype method
We identify common genetic variants associated with cognitive performance using a two-
stage approach, which we call the proxy-phenotype method. First, we conduct a genome …

Can we validate the results of twin studies? A census-based study on the heritability of educational achievement
As for most phenotypes, the amount of variance in educational achievement explained by
SNPs is lower than the amount of additive genetic variance estimated in twin studies. Twin …
