The symbolic effect in the VWFA. A, The response magnitudes for symbolic scenes and nonsymbolic scenes in the VWFA and PPA. y-axis indicates the percentage BOLD signal change, and error bars indicate ±1 SEM. B, The correlation between the VWFA response to the symbolic scenes versus nonsymbolic scenes (VWFA symbolic effect) and the subjective experiences on the strength of symbolic meanings of the symbolic scenes versus nonsymbolic scenes (behavioral symbolic effect) across the participants. x-axis is the t value by comparing VWFA response to the symbolic scenes with the nonsymbolic scenes, whereas y-axis is the normalized difference in subjective evaluation of the strength of symbol–referent association in two types of scenes in a seven-point Likert scale. C, The response magnitude for symbolic scenes, nonsymbolic scenes, images of chairs, and Chinese characters in the VWFA. y-axis indicates the percentage BOLD signal change, and error bars indicate ±1 SEM.
