Table 4. Linear age effects on the functional and structural connectivity strength between the occipital cortex and the rest of the posterior brain cortices.

Occipital and posterior regions connectivity at lobes level Functional Network ß-value (p-value) Structural Network ß-value (p-value)
Occipital-Lateral Temporal 0.161 (0.036)* 0.421 (<0.001)* T
Occipital-Medial Temporal 0.017 (0.822) 0.142 (0.065)
Occipital-Parietal 0.147 (0.057) 0.214 (0.002)* T

Standardized ß-values and their corresponding p-values are reported below.

*p < 0.01.

T denotes the significant relationships between age and posterior regions connectivity even after controlling for cortical thickness of the corresponding regions.
