A very similar pattern of results emerged from these analyses; importantly, all interactions between risk group and time point (see Section 3.4 below) remained significant except for the interaction involving changes in connectivity between the right pSTG and the right thalamus which only approached significance ( p = .08). 2.4 fMRI data analysis 2.4.1 Seed-based analysis To examine whole-brain functional connectivity of the auditory network, average residual time series were extracted from anatomical regions-of-interest (ROIs) for left and right Heschl’s Gyrus (HG) and posterior superior temporal gyrus (pSTG), as derived from an infant brain atlas ( Shi et al., 2011 ).
