Genetic variants associated with subjective well-being, depressive symptoms, and neuroticism identified through genome-wide analyses
Very few genetic variants have been associated with depression and neuroticism, likely
because of limitations on sample size in previous studies. Subjective well-being, a …

Principal Component Analyses (PCA)-based findings in population genetic studies are highly biased and must be reevaluated
E Elhaik - Scientific Reports, 2022 - nature.com
Abstract Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is a multivariate analysis that reduces the
complexity of datasets while preserving data covariance. The outcome can be visualized on …
