bGroup differences were assessed using a Kruskal–Wallis test for age and nonverbal intelligence, a Pearson’s Chi-squared test for sex, handedness and maternal education, and a Fisher’s exact test for familial risk.

cAssessment based on maternal educational level (low = no extra degree after secondary school; middle = professional bachelor/academic bachelor; high = Master or PhD).

dBased on a subset of questions adapted from the Edinburgh Handedness Inventory (Oldfield, 1971).
