Table 1 Standardized beta and statistical significances obtained with a GLM model between the mean fractional anisotropy (FA) and axial diffusivity (AD) of the WM fiber-bundles (forceps major (Fmajor), forceps minor (Fminor), cortico-spinal tract (CST), superior and inferior longitudinal fascicle (SLF and ILF respectively), uncinate fascicle (Unc), and inferior fronto-occipital fascicle (IFOF)) and the IQ scores (full scale intelligence quotient (FSIQ), verbal comprehension index (VCI), perceptual reasoning index (PRI), working memory index (WMI), and processing speed index (PSI)).
