The project described in this preregistration is intended to test the validity of BrainAGE as a metric of maturation in adolescents. In this case, BrainAGE (Brain-Age Gap Estimation) refers to the difference between a participant's chronological age and their age as predicted by a machine learning algorithm trained on structural MRI data. This project uses data from the ABCD Study, a longitudinal study of over 10,000 adolescents from across the United States.
