These correspond to the statistical maps shown in Fig. 2, Left. The input to the between-language contrast was the statistical maps shown in Fig. 1 and Tables S3 and S4, in other words with activation in the backward-layered control condition subtracted and masked with the contrasts of the language condition with fixation baseline. Only contrasts where ASL elicited greater activation than gesture are shown, because no regions showed greater activation for gesture than for ASL. Details of table creation are as for Table S1.
