Resting-state brain activity reflects the brain’s ability to predict environment changes

Evidence

2.2 Resting-State Connectivity in CI Users Using fNIRS In this study we compare the resting state connectivity of a group of normal hearing listeners compared to a group of experienced adult CI users. Brain function in the resting state, or its default-mode activity (Raichle and Snyder 2007 ) is thought to reflect the ability of the brain to predict changes to the environment and track any deviation from the predicted. — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 4290
