Most influential regions for predicting political affiliation. For each task, the pair of regions that contributed most to the prediction of liberalism (left) and to the prediction of conservatism (right) are shown. Regions were identified using a deconvolutional network approach based on the neural network trained on FC for each task in the political ideology prediction task. Nodes are labeled by the following acronyms: IOG—inferior occipital gyrus; CUN—cuneus; ACG—anterior cingulate; AMYG—amygdala; SOG—superior occipital gyrus; ORB—orbital gyrus; IFGoperc—inferior part of the opercular frontal gyrus; ITG—inferior temporal gyrus; and PCL—Paracentral lobule. A full list of regions in the AAL atlas are provided in Table S2 (Supplementary Material).
