Figure 4.
Whole-brain pairwise comparisons between the four conditions (cluster corrected p < 0.05). Offline mentalizing (Character Mental vs. Character Non-Mental) elicited a pattern of activation similar to the main effect of mentalizing (Figure 3). In contrast, no regions were significantly more active for Peer Mental than Peer Non-Mental. Social interaction without explicit mentalizing demands (Peer Non-Mental vs. Character Non-Mental) recruited similar regions as in the main effect of social interaction (Figure 3), whereas a smaller subset of these regions was more active for mentalizing within social interaction than offline mentalizing (Peer Mental vs. Character Mental). CM = Character Mental, CNM = Character Non-Mental, PM = Peer Mental, PNM = Peer Non-Mental
