Association Between Neighborhood Opportunity, Cognitive Function, and Brain Structure in Youths by Lan Zhou, Tianying Cai, Ka I Ip

“…Results: Youths living in higher-opportunity neighborhoods exhibited better performance across all cognitive measures (β = 0.11–0.37, p < .001) and larger whole-brain gray matter volume (β = 0.10, p < .001), surface area (β = 0.06, p < .001), cortical thickness (β = 0.11, p < .001), and specific brain volume regions implicated in cognitive function. These associations persisted after controlling for demographic and household factors (e.g., material hardship, family conflict, and parental education). …”
