One common response is that we are unaware of the limitations of polygenic scores and that we have been cavalier in interpreting our results. In particular, we have been told to examine papers like the following: https://t.co/zIGRYvc4Md

@bristimtom and others make an important point in this paper: 'genetic' correlations can be driven by family environment, assortative mating, and population stratification, not only by direct, causal genetic effects.

PGS for educational attainment can be overinflated due indirect mechanisms. Using this tools to infer "causal" effects of education over other phenotypes requires careful interpretations.
