were performing a visual memory task reported that the link between the inferior temporal cortex and the prefrontal cortex was important for recalling stored information and forming new memories (Fuster, 1997). This result indicates that activation of neural networks covering a broad range of areas is necessary to form memories via integration of information (Goldman-Rakic, 1995; Fuster, 1997; Magnussen, 2000). Measures of functional connectivity (FC) assess interaction among neural assemblies (Lachaux et al., 1999; Correas et al., 2015). Information spreading across various areas of the brain is constantly integrated through FC (Mheich et al., 2015); resting-state FC, in particular, may be related to the processing of complex cognitive functions (van den Heuvel and Hulshoff Pol, 2010).
