Association with IQ, controlling for sex (n = 164) after adjusting for other brain compartments

Adjusting only
for sex*
Adjusting for sex and
other brain volumes
Brain compartment Slope (SE) P value Slope (SE) P value
Grey matter −2.67 (1.21) .029 −1.05 (1.52) .492
White matter −3.36 (1.15) .004 −2.50 (1.27) .051
Cerebellum and brainstem −5.11 (1.15) <.001 −3.80 (1.56) .016

Separate regression analyses for each brain volume, controlling for sex.

A single multiple regression model with grey matter, white matter, cerebellum and brainstem, and sex as independent variables.

Slopes are scaled to reflect the difference in IQ associated with a 1-SD decrease in brain compartment volume.
