MFG connectivity with PPA during WM maintenance. An area in the right MFG (brown) was identified with connectivity analysis using a PPA seed during the encoding period of the 3 WM tasks contrasted against PV (IS + DS + NI − 3PV). Connectivity between the PPA and the MFG area is maintained throughout the trial in both NI and DS whereas in IS connectivity declines during the interruption. A whole-brain correlation analysis using suppression indices as a regressor shows that in DS, stronger connectivity between the PPA and the right MFG (blue) is associated with greater suppression of the distractor. Right MFG is an ROI, not a statistical map, and the correlation analysis regressed with suppression has the cortex masked to highlight the area of interest.
