Mean Z controls and Z patients denote group‐averaged functional connectivity in 55 healthy participants and 54 patients with Parkinsons's disease (PD); d' denotes the effect size according to Cohen's definition [Cohen, 1988]. STN, subthalamic nucleus; SPC, superior parietal cortex; S1, primary sensory cortex; IPS, intraparietal sulcus; V1 and V2, subregions (area 17 and 18) of the visual cortex; L, left; R, right; Crus I is part of cerebellar lobule VIIa.
