On the genetic basis of face cognition and its relation to fluid cognitive abilities.

Genes, brain, and behavior - 1 Jun 2013

Abstract excerpt

The oxytocin and the dopaminergic systems have turned out to be highly relevant for social abilities and cognition. Therefore, we examined the association between two functional gene polymorphisms and face cognition (FC) in a multivariate study (N = 250) by applying structural equation modeling. The catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) val158met polymorphism influences the enzyme activity of COMT, which affects...
