  • Developmental models: linear mixed-effects models for age (LME-Age) and age-sex interaction (LME-Age.Sex), generalized additive mixed models with smooth splines for age (GAMM-Age) and age-by-sex (GAMM-Age.Sex), PDS (GAMM-PDS) and PDS-by-sex (GAMM-PDS.Sex), and age-PDS interaction (GAMM-AgePDS) and age-PDS interaction-by-sex (GAMM-AgePDS.Sex). Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) and Shapiro–Wilk tests (SW) for the residuals (e) and random-effects (RE) of the Betti-0 (B0) and Betti-1 (B1) areas under the curve (AUC) for every developmental model.

  • Concerning the developmental effects at the functional network level, the PDS term showed strong effects in the fronto-parietal (FPN) and moderate effects in the auditory (AUD), sensorimotor-hand (SMH), and subcortical (SUB) networks for the B0-AUC (Fig. 5). Only the FPN had a significant effect after FDR correction (F = 6.84; EDF = 2.09; p = 0.001), which shows a nonlinear trend similar to the whole brain network (Fig. 6). No effects (even uncorrected) were found for the B1-AUC.
