Publication Genetic associations with subjective well-being also implicate depression and neuroticism
(Nature Publishing Group, 2016) Okbay, Aysu; Baselmans, Bart M. L.; De Neve, Jan-Emmanuel; Turley, Patrick; Nivard, Michel G.; Fontana, Mark A.; Meddens, Fleur S. W.; Linnér, Richard Karlsson; Rietveld, Cornelius A.; Derringer, Jaime; Gratten, Jacob; Lee, James J.; Liu, Jimmy Z.; de Vlaming, Ronald; Conley, Dalton C.; Smith, George Davey; Hofman, Albert; Johannesson, Magnus; Laibson, David; Medland, Sarah E.; Meyer, Michelle N.; Pickrell, Joseph; Esko, Tõnu; Krueger, Robert F.; Beauchamp, Jonathan Pierre; Koellinger, Philipp D.; Benjamin, Daniel J.; Bartels, Meike; Cesarini, David; Benjamin, Daniel; Koellinger, PhilippWe conducted a genome-wide association study of subjective well-being (SWB) in 298,420 individuals. We also performed auxiliary analyses of depressive symptoms (“DS”; N = 161,460) and neuroticism (N = 170,910), both of which have a substantial genetic correlation with SWB (휌̂≈−0.8). We identify three SNPs associated with SWB at genome-wide significance. Two of them are significantly associated with DS in an independent sample. In our auxiliary analyses, we identify 13 additional genome-wide-significant associations: two with DS and eleven with neuroticism, including two inversion polymorphisms. Across our phenotypes, loci regulating expression in central nervous system and adrenal/pancreas tissues are enriched. The discovery of genetic loci associated with the three phenotypes we study has proven elusive; our findings illustrate the payoffs from studying them jointly.

J.; Turley, Patrick; Ursano, Robert J.; Wagner, Gert G.; Wilson, James F.; Gratten, Jacob; Lee, James J.; Cesarini, David; Benjamin, Daniel J.; Koellinger, Philipp D.; Beauchamp, Jonathan P.Risk tolerance is an important variable in the behavioral and social sciences and one of the most studied phenotypes in social science genetics, but few genetic variants have so far been found to robustly associate with it or with risky behaviors.
