Childhood socioeconomic status is associated with psychometric intelligence and microstructural brain development

Takeuchi et al perform cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses of associations between childhood socioeconomic status and psychometric intelligence as well as microstructural brain development in Japanese children. They report that higher socioeconomic status is associated with greater psychometri...
