The locations of our a priori regions of interest were derived from Kristjánsson et al. (2007). Each row shows measures for a different region. The first column provides the name for the region, and the next three columns report the t-score for that region (the mean value for the 10% most active voxels in that region) for each of the three conditions repeat (rTnD + nTrD), novel (nTnD), and switch (sTnD + nTsD). The conditions repeat and switch are analogous to the conditions used by Kristjánsson et al., whereas the novel condition is designed to provide a form of baseline. The final three columns report the t-values (df = 20, where t = 1.725 is the one tailed p < 0.05, contrasts that survive this threshold are denoted with an asterisk) for three conditions: repeat > novel, switch > novel and switch > repeat. Note that the t-scores for the repeat and switch conditions are actually the mean t-scores from the rTnD and nTrD and sTnD and nTsD relative to rest, respectively. Significant positive t-values in the switch > repeat are replications of Kristjánsson et al., whereas the other contrasts allow us to determine if these effects reflect suppression or enhancement. FEF refers to “frontal eye fields” – the superior frontal sulcus).
