Table 1.

The general exposome factor is significantly associated with cognition at ages 9–10. Across all five cognitive tasks and across both the discovery and replication sub-samples, the general exposome factor (Exp-Factor) is positively associated with cognition. These effects held with the inclusion of all six orthogonal exposome sub-factors as covariates and survived Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons. Note that random effects for site and family are also included as covariates in these models.
