Abbreviations: NIHTB-CB, NIH Toolbox Cognition Battery; PCA, principal component analysis; RAVLT, Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test immediate recall; RAVLT-DR, Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Task delayed recall; Flanker, Flanker Inhibitory Control/Attention; DCCS, Dimensional Change Card Sort; Pattern Comparison, Pattern Comparison Processing Speed; ODS, Oral Digit Symbol.

NOTE. PCA was conducted using varimax with Kaiser Normalization. Factors with eigenvalues greater than 1, with a maximum iteration of 25, were extracted—factor loadings shown after orthogonal rotation.

NOTE. PCA 1a rotation converged in 5 iterations. The Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) measure of sampling adequacy = 0.90.

NOTE. PCA 2a rotation converged in 3 iterations. KMO = 0.89.
