Figure 1 : Functional connectivity matrices and edge length distribution of the edges surviving the primary thresholding procedure.

Both positive and negative associations with age survive the three (p < 0.01, p < 0.005, p < 0.001) primary thresholds of the NBS analysis (a). Positive associations with age occur mainly in short-range connections while negative associations can be found in medium to long-range edges (b). Similarly, positive and negative associations with years of formal education survive the application of the primary thresholds (c) and the supra-threshold edges span a large range of lengths (d).
