Abstract Robust evidence of the deleterious effects poverty on children's academic achievement has generated considerable interest in neural mechanisms underlying these associations. In studies specific neurocognitive skills, researchers have found pronounced socioeconomic disparities language and executive function (EF) skills. this article, we review research linking factors (e.g., family income, parental education) with brain structure function, focusing systems involved EF. Then, cover potential mediators associations, developmental timing, strategies for prevention intervention. To complement at behavioral level, conclude recommendations integrating measures developing into ongoing work.

New advances in neurobiology are revealing that brain development and the learning it enables directly dependent on social-emotional experience. Growing bodies of research reveal importance socially triggered epigenetic contributions to network configuration, with implications for functioning, cognition, motivation, learning. Brain is also impacted by health-related physical developmental factors, such as sleep, toxin exposure, puberty, which turn influence functioning cognition. An appreciation dynamic interdependencies experience, underscores a "whole child" approach education reform leads important insights To facilitate these interdisciplinary conversations, here we conceptualize within framework current evidence fundamental ubiquitous biological constraints affordances undergirding learning–related constructs more broadly. Learning indeed depends how nature nurtured.

Childhood socioeconomic status (SES) impacts cognitive development and mental health, but its association with human structural brain is not yet well characterized. Here, we analyzed 1243 longitudinally acquired MRI scans from 623 youth (299 female/324 male) to investigate the relation between SES cortical subcortical morphology ages 5 25 years. We found positive associations total volumes of brain, sheet, four separate structures. These were stable 25.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) allows important visualization of the brain and central nervous system anatomy organization. However, unlike electroencephalography (EEG) or functional near infrared spectroscopy, which can be brought to a patient study participant, MRI remains hospital center-based modality. Low magnetic field strength systems, however, offer potential extend beyond these traditional center boundaries. Here we describe development modified cargo van that incorporates removable low-field permanent magnet demonstrate its proof-of-concept. Using phantom scans in vivo T2-weighted neuroimaging data, show no significant differences with respect geometric distortion, signal-to-noise ratio, tissue segmentation outcomes data acquired mobile compared similar static laboratory setting. These encouraging results show, for first time, performed at participant's home, community center, school, etc. Breaking barriers access, this approach may enable patients participants who have mobility challenges, live long distances from centers, are otherwise unable travel an hospital.

Socioeconomic status (SES) is associated with children's brain and behavioral development. Several theories propose that early experiences of adversity or low SES can alter the pace neurodevelopment during childhood adolescence. These make contrasting predictions about whether adverse are accelerated delayed neurodevelopment. We contextualize these within context normative development cortical subcortical structure review existing evidence on structural to adjudicate between competing hypotheses. Although none fully consistent observed SES-related differences in development, suggests trajectories more a simply different developmental pattern than an acceleration

Many recent studies have demonstrated that environmental contexts, both social and physical, an important impact on child adolescent neural behavioral development. The adoption of geospatial methods, such as in the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study, has facilitated exploration many contexts surrounding participants' residential locations without creating additional burdens for research participants (i.e., youth families) neuroscience studies. However, number linked databases increases, developing a framework considers various domains related to environments external their home becomes crucial. Such needs identify structural contextual factors may yield inequalities children's built natural environments; these differences may, turn, result downstream negative effects children from historically minoritized groups. In this paper, we develop – which describe "adolescent urbanome" use it categorize newly geocoded information incorporated into ABCD Study by Linked External Data (LED) Environment & Policy Working Group. We also highlight relationships between measures possible applications Neural Urbanome. Finally, provide recommendations considerations regarding responsible communication data, highlighting potential harm groups through misuse.

Abstract Aging diminishes social cognition, and changes in this capacity can indicate brain diseases. However, the relative contribution of age, diagnosis reserve to especially among older adults global settings, remains unclear when considering other factors. Here, using a computational approach, we combined predictors cognition from diverse sample 1,063 across nine countries. Emotion recognition, mentalizing overall were predicted via support vector regressions various factors, including (subjective cognitive complaints, mild impairment, Alzheimer’s disease behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia), demographics, cognition/executive function, motion artifacts functional magnetic resonance imaging recordings. Higher cognitive/executive functions education ranked top predictors, outweighing reserve. Network connectivity did not show predictive values. The results challenge traditional interpretations age-related decline, patient–control differences associations emphasizing importance heterogeneous

Socioeconomic status (SES) predicts health, wellbeing, and cognitive ability, including executive function (EF). A body of recent work has shown that childhood SES is positively related to EF, but it not known whether this disparity grows, diminishes or holds steady over development, from through adulthood. We examined the association between EF in a sample ranging 9-25 years age, with six canonical tasks. Analyzing all tasks together functionally defined groups, we found positive relations did vary by age. separately, was associated performance some measures, depending on covariates used, again without varying These results add growing evidence abilities, contribute novel concerning persistence into early
