Superordinate and basic level classification of TPW semantics in the LATL. A, Significantly above chance decoding of TPW superordinate category in LATL (MNI peak coordinates: −38, −4, −26). Color bar represents t statistic. Thresholded at a voxelwise p < 0.005 and cluster-level p < 0.05 (FWE-corrected). B, Basic level classification of animals (blue; peak coordinates: −48, −12, − 20) and tools (red; coordinates: −36, −18, −28) in distinct subregions of LATL. Thresholded at a voxelwise p < 0.005 and cluster-level p < 0.05 (FWE-corrected). For visualization purposes, other significant ROI (LIPL and rSFG, shown in Fig. 4) have been masked here.
