An indirect comparison with their findings suggests that the left medial prefrontal cortex activation seen in both our HC and BN group (Table 2) is in accord with the task to 'up-regulate' food palatability.
We reviewed subjects' behavioral tendencies, and note that all of the subjects performed in accord with these summaries on each task individually, and switched behavioral strategies rapidly when the tasks were switched in our current manipulation.
Both adolescents and adults showed significant recruitment of VS and mFC by the standard contrasts of the MID task, in accord with previous experiments on human incentive processing [8], [12], [14], [15], [16], [17], [19], [20], [23].
For the Task and Residual methods, this is in accord with [10], who observed that correlation values differed depending on the pre-processing of the data and what components of task-related variability were included.
This finding is in accord with the experimental circumstances, since participants used their right hand in Task 2 (while holding a long stick) more strongly than in Task 1 (which only involved one finger).
This structural observation is in accord with the finding that neurons in this area perform 'active maintenance' during delay tasks [55].
After calculating the Metabolic Equivalent of Task minutes/week, we grouped participants as highly active, moderately active or inactive (low physical activity) in accord with the STEPS manual.
The central task of growing up is to develop a sense of self that is autonomous, confident and generally in accord with reality.
