In the original version of this Article, an incorrect citation was included.

“Zhang, H., Schneider, T., Wheeler-Kingshott, C. A. & Alexander, D. C. NODDI: practical in vivo neurite orientation dispersion and density imaging of the human brain. Neuroimage. 61(4), 1000–1016 (2012).”

As a result, in the Discussion section,

“Further exploration using modeled diffusion metrics26 and neurite orientation dispersion and density imaging (NODDI)60 may yield additional information about sex-related differences in tissue microstructure and help us continue to characterize the underlying biophysical differences between brains of males and females.”

now reads:

“Further exploration using modeled diffusion metrics26 may yield additional information about sex-related differences in tissue microstructure and help us continue to characterize the underlying biophysical differences between brains of males and females.”

“In future work, combined with additional diffusion metrics such as the modeled diffusion metrics26 and NODDI60, the study can be extended to examine the sex differences in age ranges other than young adults, which can shed light on how sex differences progress in life span.”

now reads:

The original Article has been corrected.
