What the study found

Who was studied 510,795 European ancestry individuals.

The effect Each copy of the A allele shifted the measure 0.0521 higher (95% confidence interval 0.036-0.068); p = 1 × 10−10.

How common The A allele had a frequency of about 25% in the people studied.

Where it sits Chromosome 3, band 3q26.31 — between genes, 9.8 kb from ACTG1P23.

What each result means

A/A Two copies of the version the research linked to Noncognitive aspects of educational attainment. That is the strongest link of the three results. A link in a study is not a diagnosis.
A/G One copy of the version the research linked to Noncognitive aspects of educational attainment. That is a smaller link than two copies.
G/G No copy of the version the research linked to Noncognitive aspects of educational attainment. This is the starting point the study compared everyone against.
