Figure 3. Schematic representation of the main results.

Figure 3

Depending on the graph metric (Table 2), the red circle represents either the left or right fronto-parietal network (FPN) or default mode network (DMN), whilst the black circles represents the 14 remaining network nodes. Top row. The thicker lines in individuals with high levels of conscientiousness indicate the existence of higher strength in the ‘communications’ between the FPN and the other brain networks. Middle row. People scoring higher in conscientiousness show a higher degree of inter-connectedness between the FPN or DMN and the local networks consisting of direct neighbours of the FPN or DMN. Bottom row. The DMN has higher betweeness centrality in individuals with high levels of conscientiousness. This means that the DMN is a “hub” node in conscientious people.
