Note. For the anatomical localization the macro-anatomic area is indicated and, when provided, the cytoarchitectonic location is indicated (in parentheses). Analyses were performed with a threshold of p < 0.05 (corrected) and extent threshold of 15 voxels. FG4, fusiform area; TE3, higher auditory cortex.
