An ordinary least squares linear regression model was used, with normal childhood IQ (range 90\u2013109) as the referent group.

This finding has implications for understanding of how liability to bipolar disorder may have been selected through generations. It will also inform future genetic studies at the interface of intelligence, creativity and bipolar disorder and is relevant to the developmental trajectory of bipolar disorder. It may also improve approaches to earlier detection and treatment of bipolar disorder in adolescents and young adults.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1192\/bjpo.bp.115.000455","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,9,10]],"date-time":"2015-09-10T13:04:02Z","timestamp":1441890242000},"page":"74-80","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":44,"title":["Childhood
