The genetics of success: How single-nucleotide polymorphisms associated with educational attainment relate to life-course development
A previous genome-wide association study (GWAS) of more than 100,000 individuals
identified molecular-genetic predictors of educational attainment. We undertook in-depth life …

Is the effect of parental education on offspring biased or moderated by genotype?
Parental education is the strongest measured predictor of offspring education, and thus
many scholars see the parent–child correlation in educational attainment as an important …
