Figure 2:

Confirmatory model of the genetic and environmental associations between Common EF, trait anxiety, and depression symptoms. Variance in trait anxiety and depression symptoms are decomposed into genetic/environmental influences common to both anxiety and depression (A_A+D, E_A+D) and genetic/environmental influences unique to anxiety (A_Anx, E_Anx) or depression (A_Dep, E_Dep). Genetic/environmental influences on WM-Specific and shared environmental influences on all constructs are not pictured here, but all nonshared environmental influences were nonsignificant. Factor loadings and residual genetic/environmental influences on the EF tasks are also not shown here, but were similar to those displayed in Figure 1. Significant factor loadings and correlations are displayed in bold with black lines (p < .05).
