Reviewer #2 (Public review): Unique longitudinal contributions of sulcal interruptions to reading acquisition in children
Year: 2026
Type: peer-review
Abstract: eLife AssessmentThis valuable study relating brain anatomy to reading ability in children studied longitudinally finds that a difference in sulcal anatomy is more predictive of reading ability than cognitive measures.The evidence that this anatomical difference is predictive and confers some benefit in the connectivity between brain areas is based on careful analyses and is solid.The findings would be of interest to researchers studying brain and cognitive development.
