Figure A1.
Additional twin analyses involving state anxiety. Panel A displays a Cholesky decomposition where variance in state anxiety is decomposed into genetic (A), shared environmental (C), and nonshared environmental (E) influences shared with depression and trait anxiety (ADep, CDep, EDep), shared with only trait anxiety (ATrait, CTrait, ETrait), and unique to state anxiety (AState, CState, EState). In summary, most of the variance in state anxiety was attributable to nonshard environmental influences unique to state anxiety (EState; e2 = .64). State anxiety was not significantly explained by the genetic influences shared between depression and trait anxiety (ADep), which explains why it was not significantly genetically correlated with Common EF in the modified Cholesky decomposition displayed in panel B. Significant factor loadings and correlations are displayed in bold with black lines (p < .05).
