Assessing functional connectivity measures at 3T and 7T
Introduction: Functional connectivity, implied by inter-region correlation, has previously been reported in spontaneous resting state BOLD activity. Previous work has shown high correlation between BOLD fMRI signals from functionally related disparate brain regions e.g. 1 implying that brain activity in these regions is connected even in the absence of external stimuli. It is well known that as...
متن کاملthe effect of functional/notional approach on the proficiency level of efl learners and its evaluation through functional test
in fact, this study focused on the following questions: 1. is there any difference between the effect of functional/notional approach and the structural approaches to language teaching on the proficiency test of efl learners? 2. can a rather innovative language test referred to as "functional test" ge devised so so to measure the proficiency test of efl learners, and thus be as much reliable an...
15 صفحه اولQuantification of partial volume effects in planar imaging
Introduction: The limited resolution of the imaging system causes partial volume effects (PVEs). These results in spreading of image counts to the neighboring pixels. This phenomenon is called spill-out effect. This study aimed at quantifying PVEs using ImageJ. Methods:Technetium-99m solution of concentration of 74 kBq/ml was filled into spheres A, B<...
متن کاملImproving Media Effects Research through Better Measurement of News Exposure
Survey research is necessary to understand media effects, but seriously impeded by considerable overreporting of news exposure, the extent of which differs across respondents. Consequently, apparent media effects may arise not because of differences in exposure, but because of differences in the accuracy of reporting exposure. Drawing on experiments embedded in two representative surveys, this ...
متن کاملFunctional Connectivity Measurement of the Brain
Non-invasive cognitive neuroimaging studies based on functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) are of ever increasing importance for experimental and computational neurosciences. This was made possible mainly due to the availability of fast and reliable functional MRI protocols in which the brain’s own hemoglobin content is used as the nature’s own contrast agent. Such fMRI based cortical ac...
