Comparisons of the explained variance (R2) in cognitive ability between polygenic scores based on the current meta-analysis and previous GWAS studies. The error bars represent the standard error. Cohorts: HIQ: High IQ sample; RS: Rotterdam Study; TEDS: Twins Early Development Study; ACPRC: Age and Cognitive Performance Research Centre; Discovery GWAS: Benyamin et al. 2014: childhood IQ; Davies et al. 2016: UK Biobank cognitive test (touchscreen). The R2 for HIQ is reported on the liability scale (assuming a population prevalence of 3x10-4).
