Summary of results provided by the dynamic causal modeling. (A) Schematic view of the connectivity model tested in this study, including the modulatory parameters for SEM and PHONO condition. (B) Significant endogenous connectivity parameters, showing that vOT activity results in an increase in STG, dIFG and vIFG activity. (C) Significant SEM (semantic) and PHONO (phonological) modulatory parameters connectivity, showing that the connectivity from the vOT to vIFG was greater than baseline connectivity in the SEM condition. (D) SEM condition modulated the connectivity from vOT to vIFG more strongly than PHONO condition and connectivity from vOT to dIFG was similar for SEM and PHONO conditions. ^*Represents significant statistical difference.
