SNP-based heritability estimates of common and specific variance in self- and informant-reported neuroticism scales.

<h4>Objective</h4> <p>Our study aims to estimate the proportion of the phenotypic variance of Neuroticism and its facet scales that can be attributed to common single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in two adult populations from Estonia (EGCUT; N53,292) and the Netherlands (Lifeli...

description <h4>Objective</h4> <p>Our study aims to estimate the proportion of the phenotypic variance of Neuroticism and its facet scales that can be attributed to common single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in two adult populations from Estonia (EGCUT; N53,292) and the Netherlands (Lifelines; N513,383).</p> <h4>Method</h4> <p>Genomic-relatedness-matrix restricted maximum likelihood (GREML) using genome-wide complex trait analysis (GCTA) software was employed. To build upon previous research, we used self- and informant reports of the 30-facet NEO personality inventories and analyzed both the usual sum scores and the residual facet scores of Neuroticism.</p> <h4>Results</h4> <p>In the EGCUT cohort, the proportion of phenotypic variance explained by the additive effects of common genetic variants in self- and informant-reported Neuroticism domain scores was 15.2% (p5.070, SE5.11) and 6.2% (p5.293, SE5.12), respectively. The SNP-based heritability estimates at the level of Neuroticism facet scales differed greatly across cohorts and modes of measurement but were generally higher (a) for self- than for informant reports, and (b) for sum than for residual scores.</p> <h4>Conclusions</h4> <p>Our findings indicate that a large proportion of the heritability of Neuroticism is not captured by additive genetic effects of common SNPs, with some evidence for Gene 3 Environment interaction across cohorts.</p>
