Selective activations for semantic orienting compared to spatial orienting. All activations were significant at p < .05 (corrected) except those shown in italics which were highly significant using a small volume correction based on a 10 mm radius sphere centered on the peak from the first experiment. The number of subjects (N) showing this activation at p < .01 (uncorrected) is shown in the final column.
