Three datasets were used for these analyses (Table 1): the Collaborative Genetic Study of Nicotine Dependence (24–28) (COGEND) was ascertained for nicotine dependence; the Collaborative Study on the Genetics of Alcoholism (29–33) (COGA) was ascertained for alcohol dependence; and the Family Study of Cocaine Dependence (34) (FSCD) was ascertained for cocaine dependence. Individuals from each of the three datasets were used to comprise the Study of Addiction: Genetics and Environment (SAGE) (35) (dbGaP accession number phs000092.v1.p1). Additional participants from the COGEND study were subsequently added to the SAGE study (dbGaP accession number phs000404.v1.p1). For this study, we restricted analyses to self-reported non-Hispanic individuals of European descent (N=3,676) because this is the population used to derive the polygenic risk score for schizophrenia. Ancestry was confirmed through principal component analyses. All studies were approved by local Institutional Review Boards, and all participants provided informed consent.
