Stimulus effects in literature-derived pVWFA regions. (A) Location of applied pVWFA regions from Cohen and Dehaene (2004), displayed on a transverse section through fusiform cortex and on a semi-inflated CARET surface. (B) Timecourses for all 6 stimulus types in the applied VWFA regions. There was no stimulus type by timecourse interaction in the anterior (−45, −51, −12, MNI coordinates) and classic (−45, −57, −12, MNI coordinates) regions. There is a significant stimulus type by timecourse interaction in the posterior (−45, −72, −10, MNI coordinates) region (P < 0.05), which post hoc ANOVAs show is due to trend-level greater activity for Amharic characters than consonants, pseudowords, and words (all P < 0.10) and significantly greater activity for pictures than nonwords, pseudowords, and words (all P < 0.04).
