Note: Coordinates refer to the MNI (Montreal Neurological Institute) stereotaxic space. RIOs are spheres with 8 mm radius around 0, −60, 40 (PC), ± 50, −55, 10 (pSTS), ±50, −55, 25 (TPJ), ±45, 5, −30 (TP), ±40, −40, 45 (aIPS), ±40, 5, 40 (PMC), 0, 50, 35 (dmPFC). R = right; L = left; PC = precuneus; STS = superior temporal sulcus; TPJ = temporo-parietal junction; TP = temporal pole; aIPS = anterior intraparietal sulcus; PMC = premotor cortex; dmPFC = dorsomedial prefrontal cortex. All regions thresholded at P < 0.005. Only significant regions after FWE correction are listed.

aStatistically, the Intentional > Spontaneous and Spontaneous > Intentional contrasts for the Person > Situation comparison are identical to the reverse contrasts of the Situation > Person comparison.

*P < 0.10, **P < 0.05, ***P < 0.005, FWE corrected (for other regions corrected after whole-brain analysis; for ROIs corrected after small volume analysis).
