The paper examines how deprivation and threat exposure in childhood affect neurocognitive and neuroaffective development in adolescents, finding that both delay neurocognitive maturation beyond socioeconomic factors.

The paper links shorter sleep duration in adolescents to somatomotor network disconnection, socioeconomic factors, screen time, cognition, and psychopathology using network neuroscience methods.

The paper assesses neurocognitive maturation in early adolescence by comparing resting-state functional connectivity to adult and infant networks, finding it predicts cognitive performance and development.

This study finds that socioeconomic resources in childhood are associated with widespread changes in brain connectivity, primarily driven by parental education, which is partially explained by home enrichment and child cognitive factors.
