abstract = {Relating individual brain patterns to behavioural
phenotypes through predictive modelling has been
increasingly popular. Several recent studies have focused on
the fundamental challenge of improving behavioural
prediction based on individual brain patterns, by
integrating information from multimodal neuroimaging data.
However, the benefit of multimodal integration in
brain-based behaviour prediction remains debated due to
inconsistent findings. This issue raises the need of a
systematic and extensive evaluation. Here, we investigated
the necessity and benefit of multimodal integration in 3
large datasets covering different age ranges, using 25 to 33
feature types from different imaging modalities, and 21
behavioural measures from different domains. By setting up
multiple predictive models corresponding to increasing
levels of multimodal integration, we demonstrated that
prediction performance saturates after integrating a few
types of features. In general, our analyses revealed that
multifaceted cognitive scores tend to require higher levels
of multimodal integration, while other predictions may
depend on single feature types. In most cases, multimodal
integration can remain focused on functional features,
especially in young adults. However, predictions in aging
can also require structural and diffusion features. Along
the same line, while model-free rest and task functional
connectivity may provide relevant brain phenotype for
behavioural prediction in most applications, in aging,
effective connectivity appears relevant too. Thus, our study
demonstrates that alternatives to model-free functional
connectivity and, more generally, to functional imaging
features should be considered for predictive modelling of
behaviour, especially in aging populations where
understanding interindividual variability in remain as a key
challenge.},
