Social concepts (sum of all effects of interest: i + ii + iii) vs. animal function concepts (sum of all effects of interest: i + ii + iii) inclusively masked with social concepts (all effects of interest: i + ii + iii) vs. fixation. Effects of interest: (i) partial regression effect of event-related hemodynamic response function (HRF), (ii) partial regression effect of descriptiveness on HRF, and (iii) partial regression effect of meaning relatedness on HRF. All areas surviving P = 0.005, uncorrected voxel-level threshold (minimum cluster size = 10 voxels) in the whole-brain analysis are reported. Subclusters >8 mm apart are italic. ∗, Areas surviving FDR-corrected threshold at P = 0.05; ∗∗, areas surviving the most stringent correction for multiple comparisons (family-wise error) at P = 0.05. Only areas surviving stringent correction (family-wise error) or those predicted by an a priori anatomical hypothesis are discussed in the text (see SI Methods).
