P value for non-linear association between component of birth location and polygenic score. For all models n = 321,439. Statistical adjustment was performed as follows: model 1: no adjustment; model 2: adjustment for genotyping array only; model 3: adjustment for genotyping array, 10 PCs and study participation centre; model 4: adjustment for genotyping array, 40 PCs and study participation centre
