Voxel height threshold p < .001 (uncorrected), cluster threshold p < .001 (corrected). Coordinates indicate the position of the peak voxel from each significant cluster, in Montreal Neurological Institute (MNI) stereotactic space. STG = superior temporal gyrus, IFG = inferior frontal gyrus, pars operc. = pars opercularis, SMA = supplementary motor area, STS = superior temporal sulcus
