Behavioral task, analysis, and demarcations. a, Participants navigated a virtual environment in which they encoded the spatial layout and temporal order of stores visited during virtual navigation (not scanned). b, While undergoing functional imaging, participants made judgments about the spatial and temporal distance of a reference store (Item Recognition Question) from two probe stores (Context Question) based on the previously encoded environment. c, Method used to derive MPS measures. Between-stimulus correlations involved correlating patterns of voxels between different stimulus triads (i.e., PS1, PS2; left), whereas within-stimulus correlations involved correlating patterns of voxels for matched stimuli triads (i.e., PS1, PS2; right). d, Manually drawn demarcations of MTL subfields shown from posterior to anterior.
