Gender differences in trajectories across this age range have been reported for functional neuroimaging brain development variables (Rubia et al., 2006; Christakou et al., 2009; Rubia et al., 2010; Rubia, 2013; Rubia et al., 2013), but since trajectories have been reported parametrically, or compared between distinct age ranges, the temporal detail identified here has not previously been reported. Furthermore, gender differences in rates of change across this age range have not previously been reported for brain development variables, nor specifically modeled. Preliminary studies of other P3 ERO related variables from this data set, which differ from those in this study in frequency band, ERO measure, and task condition, show similar gender differences in trajectories as those reported here.
