Covariates included in the model: age (months), creatinine, sex, mother's education (no college vs. college), and continuous family stress
Including children of mothers with urinary BPA above and below the LOD, where BPA levels below the LOD were coded as LOD/V2.
Square root transformed continuous raw scores.
