Widdowson data: 4 largest negative correlations between deviations1

| Age interval, mo | 9–10 | 0–2 |
| 10–11 | −0.23 | — |
| 4–8 | — | −0.20 |
| 4–10 | — | −0.21 |
| 4–11 | — | −0.21 |
All correlations but the first show that the 0–2 mo deviation is strongly inversely correlated with deviations later in the year. Correlations (P < 0.0001) are based on a median of 906 infants.
