Finally, the sample of couples with children was composed of 1,982 families, which was reduced to 1,097 once all missing values were accounted for. Such a large reduction in the number of observations due to missing values may hamper the representativeness of the results for the populations ...
Random mating among F2 animals yielded 200 full-sib families of the F3 generation with a total of 1632 individuals. Further details of the husbandry are given in Vaughn et al. [23]. The traits analysed in this study are weekly body weights taken in mice 1 to 10 weeks of age. These ...
Cotwins raised by families in separate countries are less common, enhancing their value for individual differences research on psychological traits and health. These pairs are generally included in other reared-apart twin samples, obscuring the cultural/familial effects that may underlie their phenotypic...
The pedigrees were first split into subfamilies using the CRIGEN command, and linkage groups were initially defined by the AUTOGROUP command. Linked markers were identified using the TWOPOINT command, with all pairs of markers producing logarithm of the odds (LOD) scores in excess of 3.0 being ...
This species selection is also taxonomically representative, as the species belong to five families and both suborders (Zygoptera and Anisoptera) of Odonata. All selected species are widespread in Sweden. Many are common also over large geographical areas in Europe and the Palearctic, or have a...
Participating families did not significantly differ from nonparticipating families in socioeconomic status (Mann-Whitney test, U = 10382.00; P = .23; effect size, r = 0.07), but parental education level was slightly higher in participating families (education of mother, U = 9538.00, P = .05...
This means that the relationship between a particular interest orientation and a particular life goal should be especially strong if they both refer to similar objects. In addition, vocational interests may contribute uniquely to major life goals because they reflect aspects of personality that are ...
Women who love their families, and who imagine futures for themselves filled with heaps of children, tend to be more focused on the man's family-orientation itself, and not as much on the more superficial characteristics less family-oriented women more greatly prize. ...
METHODS: Sixty-one families comprising 193 non-diabetic offspring, 29 non-diabetic spouses, 72 non-diabetic relatives (parent, sibling, etc.) and two non-related relatives underwent a 4 h 75 g OGTT with measurements of plasma glucose, serum insulin, serum C-peptide, plasma GIP and plasma ...
Replication samples consisted of 1035 aADHD patients and 1381 controls, as well as 166 families with a child affected from childhood ADHD. Given the high degree of co-morbidity with ADHD, we also investigated patients suffering from bipolar disorder (BD) (n ¼ 336) or personality disorders (...
