Functional Connectivity as a Predictor of Transdiagnostic Treatment Outcomes in Internalizing Psychopathologies: Advances and Clinical Implications

Highlights

  • Whole-brain functional connectivity (FC) robustly predicts multidimensional treatment outcomes in patients with internalizing psychopathologies (IPs) across diagnoses and therapies.
  • Predictive neural signatures prominently involve the default mode network (DMN) and dorsal/ventral attention networks, supporting their transdiagnostic relevance.
  • Machine learning models leveraging pretreatment FC generalize across cognitive-behavioral therapy, SSRIs, and supportive therapy, underscoring FC’s utility in precision psychiatry.
  • Integrative approaches combining multi-dimensional clinical outcomes and whole-brain FC yield superior predictive performance compared to reduced models.
