Interdigitation of BOLD responses to words and faces across 8 healthy participants. Eight healthy participants that underwent an identical category localizer task as the iEEG participants demonstrated similar category selectivity. A, Individual maps demonstrate word versus face-selectivity across left VTC. In 6 of 8 of these participants, there was strong word-selectivity medial to face-selectivity along the midfusiform sulcus. Bar graphs below each participant represent the selectivity of these word-selective regions when defining them based on one-half of the data and testing on the other half of the data. Word-selective responses were less consistent in the right hemisphere across participants. B, Bar graph of word-selectivity in left hemisphere medial word-selective regions across participants for the left-out half of the data. **p < 0.01. ***p < 0.001.
