Table 1.

Common activations across the four conditions relative to fixation. For each peak in the mean activation contrast, its anatomical location, Z-score and standard space (i.e. MNI152) coordinate are displayed. In addition, the Z-score at that peak is shown for each of the four individual conditions relative to fixation to illustrate that activation was present for all four conditions.
