Association between novelty seeking and the type 4 dopamine receptor gene in a large Finnish cohort sample.

The American journal of psychiatry - 1 Sept 1999

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: An association between the type 4 dopamine receptor (DRD4) gene and the behavioral trait of novelty seeking has been reported, but several studies have failed to replicate this finding. In the present study, the authors tested for this association in a representative sample from the Finnish population. METHOD: The authors administered the Temperament and Character Inventory to 4,773 individuals from...
