Figure 4.

Responses of the language fROIs to the conditions of the language localizer and the critical experiment. Error bars represent standard errors of the mean by participants. The sentences > nonwords contrast is highly significant (p<10⁻⁴) in every region (this analysis was carried out using across-runs cross-validation, so that the data used to define the fROIs and estimate the responses are independent, as described in section 2.6). For the object-extracted > subject-extracted contrast: * significance at the p<0.05 level, and *** significance at the p<10⁻³ level or stronger. All effects remain significant after an FDR correction for the number of regions (n=8). (Note that it is difficult to directly compare the magnitudes of response to the sentences condition of the localizer task and the magnitudes of response to the two critical conditions, because of many differences in the design, materials and procedure across the two experiments.)
