FA of the left SCP, MCP, and left ICP is associated with decoding skills. Strength of correlations between decoding standard scores and FA at 30 equidistant nodes is displayed on a colored cylinder surrounding tract renderings for the left SCP (a), MCP (c), and left ICP (e). Negative associations are observed between decoding skills and FA of the left SCP (a) and left ICP (e) as indicated in blue. Positive associations are observed between decoding skills and FA of the MCP (c) as indicated in red. Brown arrows (a, c, e) indicate cluster locations where significant associations between FA and decoding skills survived within‐tract multiple comparisons corrections. Scatter plots represent the association between decoding standard scores and significant cluster mean FA for the left SCP (b), MCP (d), and left ICP (f). Color bar represents Spearman correlation coefficients. (FA = fractional anisotropy; SCP = superior cerebellar peduncle; MCP = middle cerebellar peduncle; ICP = inferior cerebellar peduncle; L = left; R = right; FT = full term; PT = preterm; r s = Spearman correlation coefficient).
