Task Type information. (A) Task Type (physical, conceptual) decoding across the ROIs. Any decoding index significantly greater than zero indicates that the Task Type could be decoded in the region. Significant decoding was found in all regions, except for the EVC. *P < 0.05. (B) Comparison of response magnitude for physical and conceptual tasks averaged across the individual tasks. Bars show the difference in magnitude for conceptual and physical tasks with blue bars indicating stronger responses to physical tasks and red bars stronger response to conceptual tasks. In the EVC and LO, the physical tasks elicited a higher response relative to the conceptual tasks, but in pFs the reverse was true. In the LPFC, the effect of Task Type interacted with Hemisphere: Left hemisphere evidenced a conceptual task advantage, whereas the right hemisphere displayed a physical advantage. **P < 0.01.
