Coherence of the community within and across conditions. Coherence is a Welch’s t-value that represents the difference in averaged similarity value of a community architecture between two groups, i.e., the congruent and incongruent group. The congruent group contained pairs of days that both belonged to the meditation condition (MC) or the no-meditation condition (NoMC). The incongruent group contained the pairs of days from the different conditions (i.e. one from the MC and the other from the NoMC). The figure shows null distributions of coherence (distributions of coherence for permutated data); vertical lines represent the t-values observed with the true labeling and their corresponding p-values representing the probability of obtaining such observed t-values (or more extreme t-values) in the null distribution. Significant effect was found only in the DMN after FDR correction, which would be a direct consequence of our findings on the community size because a change in the community size implies a decrease in the coherence value.
