Significantly increased subtle fluctuations in spontaneous head movements as timeseries for High Risk (HR) compared to Low Risk (LR) infants, for angular and linear speed. (a) comprises a total of N = 93 datasets (N = 49HR and N = 44LR) across all time points, including N = 22 infants tested longitudinally, (b) shows data for 1–2 mo-old infants (N = 28HR and N = 28LR), and (c) shows data for 9–10 mo-old infants (N = 21HR and N = 16LR). The right-most panels show empirical Cumulative Distribution Functions (eCDFs). The eCDF of the HR distribution was significantly different from the LR eCDF across the entire sample (angular speed: Kolmogorov-Smirnov, p = 1.7935e-28; linear speed: K-S, p = 6.5195e-18) as well as separate for each age group (for 1–2 mo-olds, angular speed: K-S, p = 1.0415e-10; linear speed: K-S, p = 2.4635e-05 and for 9–10 mo-olds, angular speed: K-S, p = 1.3533e-27; linear speed: K-S, p = 3.7688e-15).
