Disentangling genetically confounded polygenic associations between Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, literacy and language

2018-03-05

Abstract excerpt

Interpreting polygenic overlap between ADHD and both literacy- and language-related impairments is challenging as genetic confounding can bias associations. Here, we investigate evidence for links between polygenic ADHD risk and multiple literacy- and language-related abilities (LRAs), assessed in UK children (N≤5,919), conditional on genetic effects shared with educational attainment (EA). Genome-wide summary sta...
