Hi,
I included the following statement in a manuscript to defend not using slice-timing correction.
Slice timing correction was not applied, as effects
on ICNs are expected to be negligible (most of the power in ICNs lies at lower
frequencies, also see [44]) and the procedure can have adverse effects (e.g.,
spreading the effect of potential artefacts or outlier scans).

BB, Lin CP. Empirical evaluations of slice-timing, smoothing, and normalization
effects in seed-based, resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging
analyses. Brain Connect. 2011;1(5):401-10.
A reviewer is asking for a reference to support my claim regarding adverse effects. Does anyone know a paper to back up this claim?
Cheers,
Diederick
