We next examined connectivity differences within each of the five functional subdivisions. Connectivity differences here reflect the change in the strength of interregional correlations in spontaneous blood oxygen level-dependent fluctuations. The functional connectivity within the paralimbic areas was significantly higher in the young-adults, compared to children (p<0.001; p<0.01, false discovery rate (FDR)-corrected for multiple comparisons). There were no differences in functional connectivity within the association, limbic, primary, and subcortical areas.
