Abstract excerpt

In 2008, van den Oord et al. identified in a genome-wide association study the MAM domain containing glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor 2 gene (MDGA2 or MAMDC1) as a new candidate for neuroticism. In addition to the replication attempt of this association, we further investigated the role of MDGA2 with respect to harm avoidance (HA), a personality trait highly related to neuroticism. In a sample of mentally...
