Table 1.

Results of the Main Effects contrasts for Auditory Clarity, Visual Clarity and Predictability (All Conditions). Coordinates and statistics are given for peak voxels and local maxima more than 8mm apart. Asterisks indicate activation sites where the signal showed a negative relationship with increased information from the input factor. The last column shows the voxelwise significance level, to 3 decimal places. Coordinates are given in Montreal Neurological Institute (MNI) stereotactic space. STS = superior temporal sulcus, STG = superior temporal gyrus, PT = planum temporale, IFG = inferior frontal gyrus, MOG = middle occipital gyrus, SPL = superior parietal lobule, SMA = supplementary motor area, MFG = middle frontal gyrus, SFG = superior frontal gyrus, IPL = inferior parietal lobe, IOG = inferior occipital gyrus, ITG = inferior temporal gyrus.
