Structural analysis of adolescence. Structural analysis results for the teenage group. Highlighted regions show an increase in gray matter density as a function of vocabulary score. When the statistical threshold was lowered to p < .001 uncorrected, a positive correlation with vocabulary was also observed in the left ventral precentral gyrus and the left angular gyrus. Both regions can be seen in this figure in addition to the left pSMG. The graph shows the effect of each of the four regressors on gray matter in the left pSMG labeled as follows on the x-axis: vocabulary (Voc), matrices (Mat), auditory memory for sentences (AM), and visual memory for sentences (VM). The y-axis shows effect sizes as the percentage increase relative to the global mean. The red bars are the 90% confidence intervals.
