Genome-wide association analyses of risk tolerance and risky behaviors in over 1 million individuals identify hundreds of loci and shared genetic influences
Humans vary substantially in their willingness to take risks. In a combined sample of over 1
million individuals, we conducted genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of general risk …
