To provide formal spatial inference on the both the comparisons between subregions of DLPFC, we computed the similarity of the connectivity patterns of DLFPC subregions. Using the connectivity patterns of DLPFC subregions, we constructed a similarity matrix for the structural and functional connectivity by conducting correlation analyses between each DLPFC subregion's connectivity patterns. In the similarity matrix, where different DLPFC subregions had similar patterns of connectivity to other brain areas similarity approached 1, whereas where DLPFC subregions connections were dissimilar, similarity was closer to 0. Then, we performed one-sample t tests at each point of the similarity matrix to determine a significant similarity between DLPFC subregions.
