| Summary: | Hannah Kiesow et al. combine 40 behavioral indicators and neuroimaging data from the UK Biobank to investigate how the transitions in midlife in the domains of social, personality, and demographic determinants impact brain anatomy. Through Bayesian analyses, the authors were able to disentangle which specific traits, relative to other considered candidate traits, contributed the most to explaining differences in social brain volume. |
