The leftmost column shows electrode pairs used to compute theta-band coherence in loss and gain trials; Connectivity Factor is the score on the first principal component derived from individual connectivity measures from the prediction error related pairs ; AE and CE are alternative models that attribute twin resemblance to additive genetic or shared environmental factors, respectively; results are presented for the best fitting model only (see Supplementary Table 2); rmz and rdz are intra-pair twin correlations showing the degree of twins’ resemblance with respect to connectivity measures (numbers of twin pairs are shown in brackets); a2, c2, and e2 are variance components estimates based on the best-fitting models showing the proportions of total phenotypic variance attributable to additive genetic (heritability), shared environmental, and non-shared environmental factors, respectively (95% confidence intervals for the parameter estimates are shown in brackets).
