Does neuroticism make you old? Prospective associations between neuroticism and leukocyte telomere length

9 Jul 2013

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Telomere attrition, causing accelerated aging, might be one of the mechanisms through which neuroticism leads to somatic disease and increased all-cause mortality. In the current study we investigated whether neuroticism is prospectively associated with shorter telomere length (TL), a biological marker of aging. METHOD: Participants were 3432 adults (mean age 52.9 years, range 32-79). Data were...
