Excerpt

The authors regret that, in this article, there was an error in the analyses comparing infant male and female regional brain volume differences. In Table 3 of the original manuscript, we accurately present the mean infant male and female brain volumes. However, ANOVA analyses comparing the male and female regional brain volumes were miscalculated. Percent differences, though accurately calculated for raw regional brain volumes, were misattributed during interpretation of our findings. The first five columns of the original Table 3 correspond to analyses not controlling for total brain volume and age; the last column, ‘Direction’, presented findings of analyses that were calculated after controlling for total brain volume and infant age. This was not clearly described in the original manuscript. We inadvertently interpreted the findings from the corrected and uncorrected analyses together, resulting in incorrect conclusions regarding sex differences in the infant brain after controlling for total brain volume and age. Only results pertaining to the comparison of regional brain volume differences between males and females were affected. …
