Covariates for adjusted analyses included gestational age, birth weight z score, sex, social risk, marker of illness, and neonatal brain injury.

Some sample sizes are less than the total sample due to missing data.

Bold values denote statistical significance (P < .05).

a

Task is reverse scored where higher scores signify a slower reaction time.
