Noise and Cognitive Performance in Developing Brain using Functional MRI: A scoping review protocol

Abstract

This protocol aims to guide the process to conduct a scoping review on noise and cognitive performance in developing the brain using functional MRI. This review benefits future research by providing a clear mapping of evidence. This protocol adhered to Arksey and O'Malley's scoping review methodological framework. A Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) was implemented to report the full scoping review. This protocol facilitated a well-structured mapping of evidence. The findings from scoping review will be made public through conferences and journal publications.
