Online Resource 1. Meta-analytic estimates of additive genetic (A), common or shared environmental (C) and unique or nonshared environmental (E) variance. Estimates from Blokland et al. (2012) and 3 additional studies, some of which include new
imaging phenotypes not included in Blokland et al. 2012; * denotes revised heritability estimate, and ^ denotes new phenotype.
The meta-analyses including the additional studies (Batouli et al. 2014; den Braber et al. 2013; Rentería et al. 2014) used the
same methodology as Blokland et al. (2012).
