Note: Group maps thresholded at voxel-wise p < 0.001 uncorrected (T values > 3.2) and cluster-wise p < 0.05 corrected within the combined language mask (the left STG, MTG, and the triangular and opercular part of the left IFG). Clusters with size greater than 25 voxels are reported. Gram = Grammatically correct condition, SCon = Strongly congruent condition, FVio = Finiteness violated condition, InCon = Incongruent condition, PC = Perceptual control condition. n.s. = no significant clusters.
