Pleiotropy between neuroticism and physical and mental health: findings from 108 038 men and women in UK Biobank

2015-11-10

Abstract excerpt

There is considerable evidence that people with higher levels of the personality trait neuroticism have an increased risk of several types of mental disorder. Higher neuroticism has also been associated, less consistently, with increased risk of various physical health outcomes. We hypothesised that these associations may, in part, be due to shared genetic influences. We tested for pleiotropy between neuroticism a...
