| Predictors a | Standardized Beta | t | p | Zero‐order correlation | Partial correlation | Part correlation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mean TC length b | 0.460 | 4.481 | .000 | 0.508 | 0.543 | 0.440 |
| Time of mechanical ventilation | −0.354 | −3.529 | .001 | −0.402 | −0.454 | −0.347 |
| SES | −0.308 | −3.023 | .004 | −0.463 | −0.400 | −0.297 |
| Postmenstrual age | −0.223 | −2.212 | .032 | −0.082 | −0.304 | −0.217 |
a
Overall model fit: F = 17.011, adjusted R 2 = .552, p < .001.
b
Mean TC calculated from the threshold‐free cluster enhancement (TFCE)‐adjusted significant clusters (p < .05).
