Table 2.

Brain regions outside the medial temporal lobe activated by Recall and Generate conditions in Experiment 1 (cluster p<.0001). Laterality (L=left, R=right, B=bilateral), Brodmann Area (BA), MNI coordinates, extent of activation (in voxels; k), and peak voxel t-statistics are given for regions of overlap as well as regions specific to each condition. Medial prefrontal cortex includes the anterior cingulate extending to medial frontal gyrus; ventrolateral prefrontal cortex includes inferior frontal gyrus; dorsolateral prefrontal cortex includes the superior frontal gyrus extending to middle frontal gyrus; basal ganglia includes regions of both the putamen and globus pallidus; fusiform gyrus extents into lingual gyrus and occipital cortex; midbrain refers to the dorsal brainstem extending from the reticular formation to the cerebral and cerebellar peduncles; and posterior caudate extends into superior thalamus.
