Title of project:
Genetic influences on behavioral and psychopathological outcomes.
Proposal summary:
Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) is an initiative by the National Institute of Mental Health seeking to reclassify mental disorders on the basis of behavior and neurobiology. Although RDoC is at this point theoretical, it has the potential to significantly impact our understanding of mental disorder and their treatment. Our aim is the validate the framework of RDoC using existing data collected and generated by ALSPAC, including questionnaires about behavior and psychopathology, in addition to genetic data collected from DNA of participants.
