Results of the tests of association of components of the mathematics composite at age 10 with rs11225308, rs363449, rs17278234, and the 10- and 43-SNP sets previously associated with the mathematics composite score. Associations are presented as correlations between the quantitative traits and additive genotypic values (as 0, 1, and 2 'increasing' alleles) for SNPs and additive SNP scores for SNP sets. Mathematics composite at 10 = the originally associated measure of mathematics at age 10; Web total = total web-test score at age 10; Understanding Number, Non-numerical Processes and Computation and Knowledge = three components of the web-test; Teacher total = teacher rating of mathematics at age 10; Using and Applying, Number and Algebra and Shapes, space and measures = three components of the teacher rating; Cor = Pearson product-moment correlations (p-values included in italics); N = size of sample analysed; rp = phenotypic correlation with mathematic composite score at age 10. One-tailed p-values were generated for all SNP-associations. * = nominally significant associations (p < 0.05). ** = associations withstanding Bonferroni testing for the five (three individual SNP and two SNP-set) association tests conducted simultaneously for each measure (p < 0.01).
