چکیده انگلیسی


- Genetic risk scores have an independent effect on adult health.
- Genetic risk is not mitigated or amplified by parental resources.
- Parental resources are related to adult health outcomes.
- Family education is negatively related to obesity and the waist-hip ratio.
- Family income is negatively related to LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels.

This paper uses longitudinal survey data linked to administrative registers to examine socioeconomic gradients in health, particularly whether the effects of genetic endowments interact with the socioeconomic resources of the parental household. We find that genetic risk scores contribute to adult health measured by biomarkers. This result is consistent with the findings from genome-wide association studies. Socioeconomic gradients in health differ based on biomarker and resource measures. Family education is negatively related to obesity and the waist-hip ratio, and family income is negatively related to low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Parental resources do not modify the effects of genetic endowment on adult health. However, there is evidence for gene-family income interactions for triglyceride levels, particularly among women.
