Abstract
Traditional cognitive neuroscience uses task-evoked activations to map neurocognitive processes (and information) to brain regions, yet how those processes are generated is left unknown. We developed activity flow mapping to identify and empirically validate network mechanisms underlying the generation of neurocognitive processes. This approach models the movement of task-evoked activity over brain connections to predict task-evoked activations. We present a protocol for using the Brain Activity Flow Toolbox to identify network mechanisms underlying neurocognitive processes of interest.
