In the current study described, Suchan et.al. (2013) were interested in investigating a pathway of connectivity in one’s brain network. Suchen was interested in the connections between the cortical areas of the brain that had to do with visual body images and how one processes them. These pathways included the extrastriate body area (EBA) and the fusiform body area (FBA), which the current study has shown in their literature review as active areas of the brain when comparing one’s body image. The study was interested in comparing the brain
