P-values are FDR-adjusted. Pop.=population genetic effect of the externalizing PGI on externalizing behavior. Direct=within-family coefficient as estimated by a full-sibling (E-Risk) and parent-child trio (MCS) designs. Ratio=direct genetic effect divided by the population effect. STDDIFF =standardized difference.
