Conjunction of hand-sensitive activation among sighted haptics, sighted vision, and blind haptics (Fig. 4)
816	<0.01*	50	−58	12	3.6	R	Middle temporal gyrus (EBA)
		52	−58	18	3.4	R	Angular gyrus (EBA)
480	<0.05*	−60	−54	0	3.6	L	Middle temporal gyrus (EBA)
1264	<0.05	−58	−40	32	4.5	L	Supramarginal gyrus

^aIn this analysis, we excluded the noncongenitally blind individuals. The activation was thresholded at p < 0.05, corrected for multiple comparisons, with the height threshold set at Z > 2.58. x, y, and z are stereotaxic coordinates (mm). R, Right; L, left.

*The search volume for activation was limited to the EBA in each hemisphere as defined by an independent visual localizer (ROI analysis).
