Figure 2 .

Results of the spatial RSA. (A) The similarity time-course is shown for each of the four conditions. The darker lines show the similarity time-course after subtracting the average word response, whereas the lighter colors show the similarity time-course without subtraction. Without subtraction, a peak in overall similarity is observed, which varies with constraint and expectancy. With subtraction, overall similarity does not vary over time, but condition-related differences remain. (B) Correlations for data without word subtraction. The correlation between neural similarity and cloze probability for sentences with expected endings is presented on top, and the correlation between neural similarity and sentential constraint (i.e., cloze probability of the expected sentence endings) for sentences with unexpected endings is presented on bottom. (C) Correlations between cloze probability/constraint and neural similarity after word subtraction.
