Figure 4

Consistency in the strength of the DMN functional connectivity during tasks and rest. The distribution of the subject-wise strength of the functional connectivity in the DMN regions extracted from attended visual (in blue), and attended audio (in red) tb-fMRI scans as well as from the rs-fMRI scan (in green) are illustrated with different violin plots. Pair-wise student t-test reveals no significant difference between any pairs of the three distributions (visual versus rest: t = 0.2, p > 0.8; audio versus rest: t = 0.3, p > 0.7; visual versus audio: t = 0.7, p > 0.4), highlighting that functional connectivity strength remains intact during tasks and rest.
