Neural correlates of Insight. Significant brain activation changes (p < .05 FWE whole‐brain) when the solution was found with a low feeling of Insight, that is, more analytical solutions (RIGHT) including areas associated with semantic memory retrieval and during Aha!‐moments, that is, solutions with a high amount of Insight (LEFT), featuring the same areas and additional stronger VTA and NAcc activations. Contrast of trials solved with high versus low subjective Insight rating (BOTTOM, p < .05 cluster‐level) shows the anterior superior temporal sulcus/gyrus (Jung‐Beeman et al., 2004) and importantly highlights the nucleus accumbens (NAcc) as the subcortical core region of the Aha!‐moment [Color figure can be viewed at http://wileyonlinelibrary.com]
