  1. Bold represents significant results (P <0.05).
  2. a and bRepresent significant results after correction for multiple comparisons with false discovery rate (FDR), a(q = 0.1) and b (q = 0.05 or 0.1). Minus indicates the direction of the group difference, - = NF1 < typically developing subjects.
  3. DoD = direction of difference; L = left; R = right.
