Abstract excerpt

The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of the C-1291G polymorphism in the promoter region of the alpha 2A adrenoreceptor gene (ADRA2A) to the personality traits. In the present study, data of the younger cohort of the Estonian Children Personality Behaviour and Health Study was used (N = 419). Personality traits were assessed by 240-item (Estonian Personality Item Pool NEO (EPIP-NEO)). Restriction...
