🚨New Preprint online! Phonological decoding ability is associated with fiber density of the left arcuate fasciculus longitudinally across reading development. doi: https://t.co/UNk2YIlYus
with @CatherineALebel @BryceGeeraert @kat_y_manning

[Meaghan Perdue, PhD @PerdueMeaghan]

Rate of fiber density development was not associated with reading ability, but we found a modest moderating effect of decoding ability on change in microstructural asymmetry of the arcuate fasciculus: poorer readers shifted toward more leftward asymmetry (+ values) with age.
