Fig. 8 — Pattern of brain activations during verbal humor processing – complete humor processing in healthy controls.

Fig. 5 Localizations of brain regions revealed by within-group contrasts during complete humor processing in healthy controls (n = 20). Images of the localizations of brain regions activations (left: sagittal; middle: coronal; right: transverse planes) were obtained by XjView toolbox (http://www.alivelearn.net/xjview). Statistical analysis utilized a non-parametric whole-brain voxel-wise Pseudo-t-test. Localizations are reported as local maximum threshold with k ≥ 10 voxels extent threshold and with False Discovery Rate (FDR) correction at alpha = 0.0500, or uncorrected at alpha = 0.0010. L – left hemisphere; R – right hemisphere; MNI - Montreal Neurological Institute coordinates; aMTG/STG, anterior Middle Temporal Gyrus/Superior Temporal Gyrus; pMTG/STG, posterior Middle Temporal Gyrus/Superior Temporal Gyrus; TPJ, Temporo-Parietal Junction; dlIFG, dorsolateral Inferior Frontal Gyrus; oSFG, orbital Superior Frontal Gyrus.
