Note: It shows significantly activated brain regions during Stop-inhibit and Switch responses using both the whole brain analysis and a priori regions of interest (ROI) analyses. SwGo = “go” trials in the Switch condition; StGo = “go” trials in the Stop condition; Stop-inhibit = successfully stopped trials; L/R = left or right; BA = Brodmann’s areas; IPC = inferior parietal cortex; coordinates (x y z) are in MNI space; SPC = superior parietal cortex; IFC = inferior frontal cortex; Pre-SMA = pre-supplementary motor area; SMA = SMA proper; SFC = superior friontal cortex; M1 = primary motor cortex; ROIs = regions of interest (FDR corrected with p < 0.01).
