Significant activations during TI judgments (sequence × inference interaction, ([IS − S] − [IP − P])), p < .05 corrected for multiple comparisons. TI was associated with activations in the bilateral cingulate cortex, right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, left insula, left superior temporal gyrus, right inferior parietal cortex, and right thalamus in controls (top row). There were no significant activations in psychotic bipolar disorder patients (middle row). Between-group comparison revealed significantly greater activations in the control group within bilateral cingulate cortex, right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, and left insula (bottom row). Significant activations are shown in flame scale (p value map) where lighter-colored voxels represent the smallest p values
