Stimulus independent decisions regarding meaningful objects leads to a whole-brain shift towards the transmodal-end of the gradient. (a) A regions-of-interest analysis using bins of the principal gradient revealed that the decisions that are made on objects rather than colours when these stimuli are not available to perception led to higher activity towards the transmodal-end of the principal gradient. (b) Decomposition using PCA revealed that this difference was related to a gradual shift in the locus of neural activity away from regions on the principal gradient related to perception and action and towards transmodal regions of cortex. Error bars indicated 95% confidence interval.
