Interaction of MAOA-LPR and CTQ subscale scores for childhood physical neglect, physical abuse and sexual abuse on Brown-Goodwin Lifetime History of Aggression (BGHA) scores

BGHA
Scores
Variable F P
Age 18.23 <0.0001
Psychoticism 14.00 0.0002
Neuroticism 36.69 <0.0001
Any substance dependence 11.60 0.0007
MAOA-LPR H vs L 1.12 0.29
G*E: MAOA-LPR × Psychoticism 2.61 0.11
Physical neglect (PN) 53.98 <0.0001
G*E: MAOA-LPR × PN 10.37 0.001
Physical abuse (PA) 4.31 0.038
G*E: MAOA-LPR × PA 1.32 0.25
Sexual abuse (SA) 9.10 0.003
G*E : MAOA-LPR × SA 0.35 0.55
Whole model 30.35 <0.0001
Whole model - variance, df 0.36, 12

MAOA-LPR H v L: high activity variant vs low activity variant; df = degrees of freedom

G*E: MAOA-LPR × PN contributes 0.011 of the total variance in BGHA aggression

The continuous scores for PN, PA and SA were entered into this analysis.

Psychoticism and neuroticism scores derive from the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire
