TABLE 1.
Results of “SL comprehension > SLA observation” comparison, revealing significant clusters specific to SL comprehension after subtracting SLA observation. Mask dimensions = 77 × 96 × 79; number of within‐brain voxels = 229,781; thresholding method = uncorrected p‐value; thresholding value = .05; volume > threshold = 3,872 mm3; minimum cluster size = 100 mm3
