Spontaneous neural activity predicts individual differences in performance.
W e each have particular strengths—some of us are good at math and others are good at language—that vary from one person to another. Less appreciated is the fact that individual differences also extend to performing what appear on the surface to be simple perceptual tasks, like learning to detect one visual form among an array of visually similar forms (1, 2). Neurophysiological studies in awak...
متن کاملNeural activity tied to reading predicts individual differences in extended-text comprehension
Reading comprehension depends on neural processes supporting the access, understanding, and storage of words over time. Examinations of the neural activity correlated with reading have contributed to our understanding of reading comprehension, especially for the comprehension of sentences and short passages. However, the neural activity associated with comprehending an extended text is not well...
متن کاملWorking Memory Delay Activity Predicts Individual Differences in Cognitive Abilities
A great deal of prior research has examined the relation between estimates of working memory and cognitive abilities. Yet, the neural mechanisms that account for these relations are still not very well understood. The current study explored whether individual differences in working memory delay activity would be a significant predictor of cognitive abilities. A large number of participants perf...
متن کاملBrain activity in visual cortex predicts individual differences in reading performance.
The relationship between brain activity and reading performance was examined to test the hypothesis that dyslexia involves a deficit in a specific visual pathway known as the magnocellular (M) pathway. Functional magnetic resonance imaging was used to measure brain activity in dyslexic and control subjects in conditions designed to preferentially stimulate the M pathway. Dyslexics showed reduce...
متن کاملTask-free MRI predicts individual differences in brain activity during task performance.
When asked to perform the same task, different individuals exhibit markedly different patterns of brain activity. This variability is often attributed to volatile factors, such as task strategy or compliance. We propose that individual differences in brain responses are, to a large degree, inherent to the brain and can be predicted from task-independent measurements collected at rest. Using a l...
