What are the downstream implications of censoring high motion volumes in fMRI? Two new preprints find that aggressive censoring leads to noisier FC, more attenuated and variable BWAS, and worse personalized TMS targets. arxiv.org/html/2603.07... www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
Excessive data censoring in fMRI undermines individual precision and weakens brain-behavior associations

Do you censor high motion frames in fMRI? In two preprints by @twktan.bsky.social @mandymejia.bsky.social, we find that we may be censoring too much! doi.org/10.64898/202... arxiv.org/html/2603.07... Strict censoring leads to worse personalized TMS targets than no censoring, even with high motion!
