F‐values are shown with final degrees of freedom of numerator (dfN) and denominator (dfD). Median standardized β‐values were calculated from the additional multivariate regressions of each network's individual WM‐ROIs (Tractographic Connections Section). Only predictors exhibiting effects at P ≤ 0.10 are shown. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001. alc = frequency of maternal drinking; age = infant age since conception; sex: male = 1, female = 2; cig = maternal smoking (cig/day); mat. age = maternal age at delivery.
