Chunk #29 — Mature Network Architecture Develops Via Segregation and Integration — Distance Based Comparisons of Child and Adult Regional Relationships
regions thought to be involved in social processing and emotional regulation. However, these regions also showed age related increases in the number of correlated voxels far from the original region location (101–140 mm). Thus it seems that regions related to functions that reach maturity relatively early (i.e., motor control) have already developed a mature pattern of relationships at the age range studied, while regions involved in later developing functions (i.e., emotional regulation) show continued decreases in their local rs-fcMRI relationships (segregation) and increases in their distant relationships (integration).
