Higher genetic risk of schizophrenia is associated with lower cognitive performance in healthy individuals

Rebecca Shafee, Pranav Nanda, Jaya L. Padmanabhan, Neeraj Tandon, Ney Alliey‐Rodriguez, Richard S.E. Keefe, Scot Kristian Hill, Jeffrey R. Bishop, Brett A. Clementz, Carol A. Tamminga, Elliot S. Gershon, Godfrey D. Pearlson, Matcheri S. Keshavan, John A. Sweeney, Elise Robinson, Steven A. McCarroll

The paper investigates the association between schizophrenia genetic risk and cognitive performance in healthy individuals, finding a link with current cognitive abilities but not with premorbid intelligence or education.
