Fig 8. Residual distance-dependent effects of subject motion on functional connectivity.

Average of absolute value of Pearson’s correlation between the Euclidean distance between node pairs and QC-FC, indicating distance-dependent of motion after denoising. A value closer to zero indicates less residual effect of motion after denoising. Error bars represent the standard deviation. The horizontal line represents the baseline. Strategies scrubbing.2 and scrubbing.2+gsr were the most effective in reducing the correlation in both datasets.
