The goal of a PhD is not to learn some facts or read a few papers or learn a bunch of techniques. The goal of a PhD is to learn independence, problem solving, how to finish things you start, resilience, & gain the ability to adapt & think creatively. Learning these things is hard.

Between-movie variability severely limits generalizability of "naturalistic" neuroimaging.

Not sure about the (over)generalization to all of naturalistic neuroimaging, nor the claim that this severely limits the approach.

But definitely provides food for thought.
Between-movie variability severely limits generalizability of “naturalistic” neuroimaging
“Naturalistic imaging” paradigms, where participants watch movies during fMRI, have gained popularity over the past two decades. Many movie-watching studies measure inter-subject correlation (ISC), wh...

In a previous fMRI study we use a broad set of regions. Are there other studies that have good sets of ROIs?
Are there some important regions missing from our set?
Thanks.
