Dear experts,
I used Yeo's 17-network parcellation to study the association between network-wise cortical volume and a clinical variable in adolescents. I received the following two questions from the reviewers regarding the use of Yeo's atlas. I would really appreciate if someone could help us in addressing these questions:
*1) Could the author justify their choice to use a functional parcellation on structural data? How is using this parcellation helpful in understanding the brain? All in all, the authors need to justify the superiority of using Yeo's 17-area parcellations on structural data over other methods of parcellation/analysis. * *2) One issue with Yeo's parcellation also stems from the fact that this parcellation was derived from adult connectomes. Could the authors also address this issue and provide examples that justify their approach.*
Thanks.
