The effects of learning about one's own genetic susceptibility to alcoholism: a randomized experiment.

Genetics in medicine : official journal of the American College of Medical Genetics - 1 Feb 2013

Dar-Nimrod Ilan, Zuckerman Miron, Duberstein Paul R

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Increased accessibility of direct-to-consumer personalized genetic reports raises the question: how are people affected by information about their own genetic predispositions? METHODS: Participants were led to believe that they had entered a study on the genetics of alcoholism and sleep disorders. Participants provided a saliva sample purportedly to be tested for the presence of relevant genes. While...
