Beyond the p-value: improving the balance between sensitivity and specificity for functional localization in fMRI data Ghent University
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), a non-invasive technique to capture brain
activity, is getting increasingly important in psychological research. Nowadays, instead of the whole brain, researchers are particularly interested in the activation pattern of very specific brain regions of interest (ROI). So-called localizer tasks, executed after the main task of interest, are used to define functional ROIs (fROIs) in each subject ...
