If it holds, results from studies using different parcellations may not be directly comparable, which matters especially in developmental and clinical research.","findings":["The eight parcellations were equally able to capture networks of interest in both children and adults.","Networks with the same name across parcellations did not give reliable within-network functional connectivity measures.","Parcellation choice significantly changed the size of associations of connectivity with age, poverty and cognitive ability."],"terms":[{"term":"parcellation","means":"A map that divides the brain into regions or networks, used to decide in advance which areas to group together in an analysis."},{"term":"within-network functional connectivity","means":"How strongly the activity of brain regions inside one network rises and falls together over time."},{"term":"default network","means":"A set of brain regions that tend to be active together when a person is resting or thinking about nothing in particular."}],"basis":"abstract","abstractFrom":"europepmc","model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","writtenAt":"2026-10-12T07:33:12.014Z","version":"context/0.2"},"summary":{"status":"written","at":"2026-10-12T07:33:12.014Z","attempts":1,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","why":null},"note":"Machine-written context to help a reader: it is not evidence, it moves no number, and it may be wrong.
