Education, socioeconomic status, and intelligence are commonly used as predictors of
health outcomes, social environment, and mortality. Education and socioeconomic status …

Greater height and higher intelligence test scores are predictors of better health outcomes.
Here, we used molecular (single-nucleotide polymorphism) data to estimate the genetic …

This article provides an overview of the biometric and molecular genetic studies of human
psychometric intelligence. In the biometric research, special attention is given to the …

Intelligence—the ability to learn, reason and solve problems—is at the forefront of
behavioural genetic research. Intelligence is highly heritable and predicts important …

General intelligence is an important human quantitative trait that accounts for much of the
variation in diverse cognitive abilities. Individual differences in intelligence are strongly …

Growing acceptance of the conclusion that genetic influence on intelligenceis significant and
substantial is only the first chapter in the story of genetics and intelligence. Much remains to …

Objective: Socioeconomic factors have been suggested to influence the effect of education-
and intelligence-associated genetic variants. However, results from previous studies on the …

Background The environment can moderate the effect of genes-a phenomenon called gene-
environment (GxE) interaction. Several studies have found that socioeconomic status (SES) …

Pedigree-based analyses of intelligence have reported that genetic differences account for
50–80% of the phenotypic variation. For personality traits these effects are smaller, with 34 …

Causes of the association between cognitive ability and health remain unknown, but may
reflect a shared genetic aetiology. This study examines the causal genetic associations …
