Table A2.

Quantitative Disequilibrium Transmission Test of a Direct Association Between DRD4 and Political Ideology

	Estimate (standard error)	p-value
Intercept	2.84 (0.23)	0.00
Between-family component of DRD4-7R (b)	-0.05 (0.04)	0.12
Within-family component of DRD4-7R (w)	0.09 (0.07)	0.18
Age	0.00 (0.01)	0.66
Male	-0.05 (0.04)	0.15
Deviance	1119.55
N	1941

Note: This table can be read like an ordinary regression except that the variable coding for DRD4 is divided into two variables to control for population stratification. The between-family component represents the average number of DRD4-7R alleles among all observed members of the subject’s family, while the within-family component indicates the excess number of DRD4-7R alleles relative to the family average. The results show that DRD4-7R is not directly associated with political ideology. Null deviance = 1123.28.
