Functional Connectivity of the Scene Processing Network at Rest Does Not Reliably Predict Human Behavior on Scene Processing Tasks.

ABSTRACT: The perception of scenes is associated with processing in a network of scene-selective regions in the human brain. Prior research has identified a posterior-anterior bias within this network. Posterior scene regions exhibit preferential connectivity with early visual and posterior parietal regions, indicating a role in representing egocentric visual features. In contrast, anterior scene regions demonstrate stronger connectivity with frontoparietal control and default mode networks, suggesting a role in mnemonic processing of locations. Despite these findings, evidence linking connectivity in these regions to cognitive scene processing remains limited. In this preregistered study, we obtained cognitive behavioral measures alongside resting-state fMRI data from a large-scale public dataset t
