Note: Clusters of voxels significant at p < .001, uncorrected, extent threshold = 6 voxels. Contrasts of all tools, separately in each language, and all dwellings, separately in each language, with fixation. Region labels apply to the entire extent of the cluster with peak maxima designated by first locale cited. T-values and MNI coordinates are for the peak activated voxel in each cluster.
