Navigating Correlation, Causation, and Interpretation in Resting-State fMRI

2025-09-19

Abstract excerpt

Resting-state fMRI has generated influential insights into large-scale brain organization and contributed to clinically relevant applications, largely through correlation-based measures of cross-regional association in BOLD responses. At the same time, interpreting these statistical associations as reflecting underlying neural interactions requires careful consideration of fundamental methodological constraints. H...
