Neuroimaging Correlates of the NIH-Toolbox-Driven Cognitive Metrics in Children.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Toolbox Cognition Battery is increasingly being used as a standardized test to examine cognitive functioning in multicentric studies. This study examines the associations between the NIH Toolbox Cognition Battery composite scores with neuroimaging metrics using data from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) study to elucidate the neurobiological and neuroanatomical correlates of these cognitive scores.

Methods

Neuroimaging data from 5290 children (mean age 9.9 years) were analyzed, assessing the correlation of the composite scores with Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI), structural Magnetic Resonance Imaging (sMRI), and resting-state functional connectivity (rs-fMRI). Results were adjusted for age, sex, race/ethnici
