The Relation between Chronotype and Resting State Functional Brain Connectivity in Adolescence

We examined differences in the brain connectivity of frontolimbic circuitry at rest in adolescents who vary on chronotype. Preliminary results suggest greater functional connectivity between the OFC and amygdala among evening-type adolescents (z = 2.3, p < 0.5). Our findings show individual differences in frontolimbic connectivity in adolescents by chronotype.
