Multivariate genetic analysis of personality and cognitive traits reveals abundant pleiotropy and improves prediction
Personality and cognition are heritable mental traits, and their genetic determinants may be distributed across interconnected brain functions. However, previous studies have employed univariate approaches which reduce complex traits to summary measures.โฆ
