The paper examines intrinsic neural timescales in autism spectrum disorder and typically developed controls, finding preserved hierarchical organization but individual variability linked to sensory traits.

The paper uses hidden Markov modeling on whole-brain MEG data to show subsecond neural dynamics correlate with value-based decision variables in humans.

The paper shows that questionnaire items measuring the same psychological trait evoke similar neural patterns in the mPFC during self-referential tasks, suggesting the brain represents psychological constructs rather than just language.

This study uses fMRI to show that self-reference tasks in the mPFC involve multiple cognitive processes shared with other-reference, introspection, and memory tasks.

The paper investigates how the self-concept is represented in the brain using fMRI and finds that self-importance of attributes is represented in the medial prefrontal cortex.

This study develops a generalizable neuromarker for ASD across multiple sites and developmental stages, showing significant performance in adults, children, and adolescents.

This study examines decision-making in a multifactor gambling task, finding that fronto-parietal cognitive control influences reaction times and strategy switching in complex value-based decisions.

This study evaluates the impact of MRI acquisition upgrades and harmonization methods on brain parameters, showing that harmonization reduces protocol effects but requires sufficient participants.

The paper shows that reversible fronto-occipitotemporal signaling supports task encoding and behavioral flexibility under ambiguous cues by alternating top-down and bottom-up signals.
