Abstract:Some aspects of the brain change volume at a fairly constant rate across the life span, i.e., linear maturation rate with respect to age, whereas other aspects of the brain change volume at different rates for younger vs. older age ranges, i.e., non-linear changes. Various forms of non-linear maturation likely reflect different biological mechanisms such that theoretical distinctions between maturation patterns ought to be considered. Simulated data with known maturation patterns and a single critical age char… Show more
