Genetic Analyses of “Trios” in the SOEP-IS
Short Description: This module aims to collect genetic data from the participants. Compared to the sample sizes of state-of-the-art genetic discovery studies (with N > 1,000,000), the sample size of the SOEP-IS is marginal. However, the project is not primarily a genetic discovery study. Although genetic data from the SOEP-IS may be included in future genetic discovery meta-analyses, the main purpose of collecting genetic data in the SOEP-IS is to enable novel, genetically informed research designs that will help social scientists to better understand environmental effects.
Data Access Please note, that the variables listed below only provide some information about which individuals were part of the module. The actual genetic data is not part of the normal Data Distribution File. Polygenic score data is available and can be shared along with the usual SOEP-IS data. Researchers who would like to gain access should submit their IRB approval to the SOEP data center, and inform SOEP-IS team (soep-is@diw.de) Researchers interested in testing their code in advance may request a synthetic dataset from soep-is@diw.de.
