Note. Additive genetic [A] correlations below the diagonal. Unique environmental [E] correlations above the diagonal. Values estimated from the final multivariate AE model including all eight constructs. Values on the diagonal for each correlation matrix are latent standard deviations for the A and E factors for each construct. 95% conf. int. = 95% normal-theory confidence intervals. Confidence intervals were constrained to ±1 when reported.

^aUpper bound for genetic correlations with Agreeableness would not converge due to the small genetic variance component for this trait. Data are from MIDUS Time 1.
