fMRI results for the interaction of synaesthetes compared to controls, for the synaesthetic CC and IC conditions compared to the real colour CC and IC conditions (N = 19 synaesthetes, N = 19 controls) of Experiment 2. Random effects analyses, extent threshold ≥50 voxels, whole brain threshold P<.001uncorrected. Listed are cluster size (k), corrected P-values at cluster-level (p), MNI coordinates of local maxima and T-values. Brodmann areas (BA) are in parentheses. R = right, L = left, CC = congruent (synaesthetic) colour condition, IC = incongruent (synaesthetic) colour condition, SVC = Small Volume Correction, Prec = Precuneus.
