Pattern of brain activations during verbal humor processing – 2-stage masking for incongruity resolution and elaboration processing in healthy controls and schizophrenia outpatients.
Fig. 11 Localizations of brain regions revealed by within-group 2-stage mask contrasts during incongruity resolution and elaboration processing in healthy controls (n = 20) and schizophrenia outpatients (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 uncorrected significance level at alpha = 0.0010. L – left hemisphere; R – right hemisphere; MNI - Montreal Neurological Institute coordinates; aTP/MTG/STG, anterior Temporal Pole/Middle Temporal Gyrus/Superior Temporal Gyrus; pMTG/STG, posterior Middle Temporal Gyrus/Superior Temporal Gyrus; TPJ, Temporo-Parietal Junction.
