Attentional lapses have been shown to be associated with an altered connectivity and activation pattern of the default-mode network. To further our understanding of the relationship between resting-state connectivity pattern and task performance, we analyzed a multitask dataset including four mental tasks (rest, memory, video, and math). We computed whole-brain connectivity patterns using all volumes during rest (rs-FNC), and the dynamic functional network connectivity (dFNC) patterns during tasks with a sliding window method. We compared similarity between the rs-FNC pattern and dFNCs, which was correlated to the task performance and thus might be used as a cognitive biomarker.
