| Note. Performance in different cognitive domains predicted by Phe average or Phe variation for different developmental epochs: early childhood (up to 10 years) adolescence (11–16) and adulthood (17+); measures of current Phe and life span Phe measures are also included. B shows changes in performance measures for every 100 μmol/l of Phe (e.g., for visuo-motor coordination, .2 z scores are added for every 100 μmol/l of phe; for IQ, 14 point of IQ are lost for every 100 μmol/l of Phe. | ||||||||
