“…Functional or effective connectivity measured by fMRI has provided essential information on the functional organization of the human brain network. Age‐related changes in functional connectivity have been extensively examined in resting‐state fMRI studies (Andrews‐Hanna et al, 2007 ; Chan et al, 2014 ; Ferreira & Busatto, 2013 ; Geerligs et al, 2015 ; Grady, 2008 ; Grady et al, 2016 ; Masuda et al, 2018 ; Tibon et al, 2021 ; Tibon & Tsvetanov, 2021 ). However, functional connectivity estimated by fMRI involves methodological issues, such as vascular reactivity and head motion, which may change with diseases or age (Geerligs et al, 2017 ; Lehmann et al, 2017 ; Tsvetanov et al, 2015 ).…”
