Regions where there is evidence (p < .05, family wise error rate corrected) of associations between white matter microstructure parameters and phonological awareness when assessed in all children. P-values in red-yellow = positive correlations and dark to light blue = negative associations. P-value maps have been overlaid on the standard space (MNI152) T1-weighted image. The scatter plots show the average diffusion value (y-axis) from the significant regions for each participant against phonologic performance (x-axis) for each participant (VPT in white and term-born children in green). Only associations, where p < .05, after threshold-free cluster enhancement (TFCE) and correction for the family-wise error rate (FWE), are shown. Analyses were not corrected for multiple comparisons across white matter microstructure parameters.
