“…Indeed, the association between SES and brain structure and function has been demonstrated in multiple ways (e.g., Betancourt et al, ; D'Angiulli, Herdman, Stapells, & Hertzman, ; Finn et al, ; Hackman & Farah, ; Hanson et al, ; Jednoróg et al, ; Leonard, Mackey, Finn, & Gabrieli, ; Luby et al, ; Mackey et al, ; Noble et al, ; Noble, Houston, Kan, & Sowell, ; but see Brain Development Cooperative Group, ; Eckert, Lombardino, & Leonard, ; Lange, Froimowitz, Bigler, Lainhart, & Brain Development Cooperative Group, ; Raizada, Richards, Meltzoff, & Kuhl, ). Specifically, lower SES has been linked to reduced gray matter volume (Hanson et al, , ; Jednoróg et al, ; Luby et al, ), reduced cortical thickness (Mackey et al, ), reduced degree of cortical gyrification (Jednoróg et al, ), and reduced surface area (Natalie & Noble, ) in bilateral occipito‐temporal, temporo‐parietal, and inferior frontal regions that support reading development (Booth et al, ; Martin, Schurz, Kronbichler, & Richlan, ; for a review see Ozernov‐Palchik & Gaab, ).…”
