Resurrecting Brinley Plots for a Novel Use: Meta-Analyses of Functional Brain Imaging Data in Older Adults

<table>Traditional
Brinley plot of response times for the 4 
tasks used in the fMRI meta-analysis. 
If young and older adults showed equivalent 
between-task change in the speed of
responses across these studies, the slope of 
the fitted line would be 1 (dotted
blue line); however, results indicated 
that some general cognitive slowing is
evident within the datasets since the 
slope of the fitted line was 1.4 (solid
green line).</table>
