Genetic link between family socioeconomic status and children's educational achievement estimated from genome-wide SNPs.

Molecular psychiatry - 1 Mar 2016

Krapohl E, Plomin R

Abstract excerpt

One of the best predictors of children's educational achievement is their family's socioeconomic status (SES), but the degree to which this association is genetically mediated remains unclear. For 3000 UK-representative unrelated children we found that genome-wide single-nucleotide polymorphisms could explain a third of the variance of scores on an age-16 UK national examination of educational achievement and...
