Figure 2.
The stop-signal task and its activated areas. A, The stop-signal task. In Go trials, subjects were instructed to make the left or right button press, as indicated by the arrow. In Stop trials, the left/right arrow was changed to an up-pointing arrow, and the subjects were required to withhold their manual response. RT, Reaction time. B, Group-level voxelwise statistical maps of brain activation during response inhibition (Stop success vs Go success) in transverse slices. The color scale reflects statistical significance as indicated by the color bar on the right. The “Z” below the statistical maps indicates the z-coordinate in MNI space. L, Left; R, right. C, The same maps shown in coronal slices. The “Y” below the statistical maps indicates the y-coordinate in MNI space. D, The same maps shown in an inflated surface. E, ROI analyses of correlation between SSRT and brain activity during response inhibition. *p < 0.05. F, Scatter plot of correlation between SSRT and brain activity during response inhibition in the IFC. One dot represents data from one subject.
