ABSTRACT
Objective To build the linear models for exploring relations between behavior data and functional magnetic resonance image(fMRI) signals of brain during cognitive task and to validate whether it is reasonable.Methods The linear models of behavior data and fMRI signals were built,and the functional regions of brain were detected by tests of corresponding parameters.Experimental data of Stroop tasks were used to study the effects of the models by comparing with the results of SPM.Results The results of Stroop data showed that dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex(Brodmann 9/46),and superior frontal median cortex(Brodmann 8/9) were associated with response time of Stroop tasks,and accorded with SPM results and other reports.Conclusion The models can quantitatively analyze the relations of response time and fMRI signals,providing a new way to explore functional images of cognition.
