Test-retest reliability of dynamic functional connectivity parameters for a two-state model.

ABSTRACT: Reliability of imaging parameters is of pivotal importance for further correlation analyses. Here, we investigated the test-retest reliability of two dynamic functional connectivity (dFC) brain states and related parameters for different scan length, atlases with 116 versus 442 regions, and data centering in 23 participants and reproduced the findings in 501 subjects of the Human Connectome Project. Results showed an integrated and a segregated brain state with high intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) values of the states between sessions (0.67 ≥ ICC ≥ 0.99). The most reliable dFC parameter was state prevalence with an ICC ≈ 0.5 for ∼15 min of uncentered data, while other parameters, such as mean dwell time, were much less reliable. While shorter scans and within-subject data centerin
