Table 3. Pearson's correlations of CC volumes with selected neurocognitive measures in children with 22q11DS (n=59, trails B time data available only for 25 subjects).

CC region Verbal comprehension Working memory Trails B time WCST perseverative errors WIAT math score

Total CC 0.33* 0.28* 0.50* 0.26* 0.17

Negative correlation with trails B time indicated that increased CC volumes were associated with a shorter time required to complete the task, so if effect these are positive correlations with set-shifting.

Magnitude of correlation: 0.1=small, 0.3=medium and 0.5=large. Medium and large effect sizes are in bold.
