The integrity or microstructure of white matter as determined by diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is related to cognitive function. Most studies focus on individual tracts, even though the microstructure of white matter tracts throughout the brain is highly correlated. In older adults, a common property of white matter predicts cognitive function, though it is not known if common factors are present in early childhood development or how they relate to cognitive function. Here, we found that DTI-based common underlying factors that emerge at this age are significantly related to cognitive abilities from birth to age 2 y. These findings indicate that the functional specialization of cognition and the anatomical differentiation of fibers cooccur in the neonatal and infant brain. |
