Contributions of default mode network stability and deactivation to adolescent task engagement
Scientific Reports December 21, 2018 Ethan M. McCormick, Eva H. Telzer
Out of the several intrinsic brain networks discovered through resting-state functional analyses in the past decade, the default mode network (DMN) has been the subject of intense interest and study. In particular, the DMN shows marked suppression during task engagement, and has led to hypothesized roles in internally-directed cognition that need to be down-regulated in order to perform...
