A plausible hypothesis is that fluid intelligence deficits will be most associated with lesions in the specific frontoparietal network suggested by functional imaging; further data, incorporating patients with posterior as well as frontal lesions, would be needed to test this hypothesis.
Consistent with the conclusions published in recent meta-analyses [ 11, 12, 144] implicating premorbid intelligence deficits as an antecedent of SSD, robust evidence of medium to large effects is available across birth, high-risk, and case-control cohorts in support of this association [ 29, 96, 133, 135– 141, 142] 142].
