Threshold P < 0.0005 (uncorrected), extent threshold = 5 voxels; coordinates follow atlas by Talairach and Tournoux (1988); BA, Brodmann area; VLOCC, ventrolateral occipital cortex; IFG, inferior frontal gyrus; IPS, intraparietal sulcus; PMC, premotor cortex; OFC, orbitofrontal cortex; SFG, superior frontal gyrus; PoCG, post-central gyrus; *extends to R IPS, (36, −59, 53, Z = 4.77). At P < 0.001, no additional activations are revealed.
