Erratum: Genetic contributions to self-reported tiredness

Correction to: Molecular Psychiatry (2017) advance online publication 14 February 2017; doi:https://doi.org/10.1038/mp.2017.5

Following publication of this paper, the authors noticed a mistake in Tables 3 and 4 and Figure 3. The genetic correlation between tiredness and C-reactive protein was displayed as 0.0165, but the correct genetic correlation is 0.1650. The thresholds for major depressive disorder and neuroticism are incorrect in Table 4. The threshold for major depressive disorder is 0.1, and for neuroticism the threshold is 1. The corrected tables and figure appear below.
