Genetic correlations (r g) with large-scale GWAS of EduYears (EA4) and intelligence were high at earlier transitions but lower at later ones (for EA4, r g ≈ 0.92 at HS → BSc+ and ≈ 0.38 at MSc → PhD). Sensitivity analyses using an alternative intelligence GWAS and additional PGIs showed similar transition-specific trajectories.

At the doctoral transition, estimates were obtained among individuals who had attained at least a master's degree, so attenuation there must be interpreted in light of selection and range restriction.
