Differences of brain activation between automatic and early-learning stages in controls. Brain regions more activated in the early-learning than in the automatic stage (A), and more activated in the automatic than in the early-learning stage (B) while performing the visuomotor association task (post hoc t-test, P < 0.05, FWE corrected, Supplementary Table 1). L, left; R, right; ACC, anterior cingulate cortex; APu, anterior putamen; CB, cerebellum; CN, caudate nucleus; DLPFC, dorsolateral prefrontal cortex; IPL, inferior parietal lobule; PMC, premotor cortex; PPu, posterior putamen; pre-SMA, rostral supplementary motor area; SPL, superior parietal lobule.
