The boundaries of the internalizing and externalizing genetic spectra in men and women.

Psychological medicine - 1 Feb 2014

Kendler K S, Myers J

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The distribution and co-morbidity of common psychiatric disorders can be largely explained as manifestations of two broad psychopathological spectra of internalizing and externalizing disorders. Twin studies suggest that these spectra arise from genetic factors. METHOD: Structural equation twin modeling was applied to interview and questionnaire data on personality traits and lifetime psychiatric...
