This table provides the result of the polygenic score analyses for the individual items at specific P-value thresholds. For each analysis we report the regression coefficient (β) and the accompanying standard errors (SE), Z-score (Z) and P-value of the Z-score (P-value). Variance explained (R2) is provided in percentages. Please note, the variance explained for SSBI items is measured using Nagelkerke’s pseudo R2 given that these were binary phenotypes
