• Multivariate analysis of 1.5 million people identifies genetic associations with traits related to self-regulation and addiction - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 34446935

  ABSTRACT: Behaviors and disorders related to self-regulation, such as substance use, antisocial behavior, and ADHD, are collectively referred to as externalizing and have shared genetic liability. We applied a multivariate approach that leverages genetic correlations among externalizing traits for genome-wide association analyses. By pooling data from ~1.5 million people, our approach is statistically more powerful than single-trait analyses and identifies more than 500 genetic loci. The loci were enriched for genes expressed in the brain and related to nervous system development. A polygenic score constructed from our results predicts a range of behavioral and medical outcomes that were not part of genome-wide analyses, including traits that until now lacked well-performing polygenic scor
