Changes in cross-decoding over the course of the experiment. A, Cross-decoding in PPA was stable across the first and second halves of Experiments 1 and 3, in which subjects were Penn students who had real-world experience with the landmarks. In contrast, cross-decoding increased over the course of Experiment 2, in which subjects were Temple students who were initially unfamiliar with the landmarks, suggesting learning of landmarks from visual exposure. B, Cross-decoding in RSC was stable across halves in Experiments 1 and 2 but significantly increased over the course of Experiment 3, suggesting that the concurrent memory task became less interfering over time. Solid lines indicate significant changes in cross-decoding; dashed lines are nonsignificant.
