aWhole-brain contrast corrected at q(FDR) = 0.05. Linear contrast column presents results of repeated-measures ANOVA with a linear contrast. Contrast with MS difficulty column presents the results of a repeated-measures ANOVA with a contrast based on mental state difficulty (Ginther et al., 2014; Shen et al., 2011). MS decoding column presents the results of a t test compared with chance level decoding of mental state level in each region. All sizes are in units of functional voxels. All ROI analyses corrected for multiple comparisons.

bSignificance at p < 0.1.

cIf both contrasts account for the data, significantly more consistent with the data than the other contrast (Rosnow and Rosenthal, 1996).
