Differences between the activation levels of words in sentences (obtained by averaging the activation of all sentences that contain the word) and the activation of words presented in isolation are plotted by the three semantic categories of contexts (indicated by color) in three types of regions (indicated within vertical panels). The activation levels were averaged across voxels in the regions associated with each semantic factor. The mean percent signal change (PSC) of words in context was significantly greater than the PSC of words in isolation in the home regions of the concepts for each semantic category (indicated by asterisks on the upward-directed bars). The mean percent signal change of words in context was also significantly lower than words in isolation in the some of the non-home regions of some concepts.
