Abstract

Introduction

the aim of this study was to investigate whole-brain functional connectivity patterns of the reward circuitry and executive control network, and their associations with growth mindset of intelligence in adolescents

Methods

we investigated seed-based functional connectivity of three pre-defined seeds, the caudate and putamen (reward circuitry), and dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC; executive control region) in 59 adolescents between 13–16 years old. Growth mindset was used as covariate in the seed-based analysis

Results

our findings revealed the expected whole-brain functional connectivity patterns of the three pre-defined seeds. In contrast to the literature, none of these functional connectivity patterns between the seeds and all other voxels of the brain were related to growth mindset

Conclusion

the current study suggests that the neural representation of a growth mindset is not consistently observed in resting-state neural connectivity and might depend on contextual or cultural differences.

在动机相关的大脑网络中，心态是否与功能连接有关：一项针对青少年的静息状态fMRI研究

摘要本研究旨在探讨青少年奖赏回路和执行控制网络的全脑功能连接模式及其与智力成长心态的关系。方法研究了尾状核和壳核（奖赏回路）、前扣带背皮层(dACC；59名13-16岁青少年的执行控制区)。在基于种子的分析中，成长心态被用作协变量。结果我们的发现揭示了三种预定义种子的预期全脑功能连接模式。与文献相反，种子和大脑所有其他体素之间的这些功能连接模式都与成长心态无关。结论：目前的研究表明，在静息状态的神经连接中，成长心态的神经表征并不一致，可能取决于环境或文化差异。
