    Histogram showing success rates of the percentage of children (y-axis) in the cross-sectional study (n = 459) and longitudinal study who were scanned for 10 years (n = 30), performing 4 fMRI tasks, and their success rate (x-axis). 100% success rate = 4 tasks completed; 75%, 50%, 25%, and 0% correspond to 3, 2, 1, or no task completed.
