Crucially, 'no go' trials produced greater activation of this network than 'Go' trials, and activity in one specific brain region (the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex) predicted the strength of the participants' memory, such that greater the observed network activation, the more likely the participants were to forget that face later on.
Youth at risk for obesity show greater activation of striatal and somatosensory regions to food.
Tactile stimulation induced greater activation of the somatosensory regions but less extensive deactivation of the LPNN.
Results showed that drug users had an 'attentional bias' for drug-related words, which was correlated with greater activation of prefrontal and cerebellar cortices.
Compared with controls, patients exhibited significant disinhibition (decreased positivity) of right frontal areas and greater activation of left temporal sites.
In addition, inhibited children show greater activation of the frontal cortex on the right side of the brain, while uninhibited children show greater activation of the frontal cortex on the left side.
Consequently, we predicted greater activation of the empathy network during judgments of blame (which rely more on the assessment of harm) than during judgments of acceptability (which rely less on the assessment of harm).
Finally, consistent with prior research showing that blame judgments are especially susceptible to moral luck effects, we show greater activation of the empathy network when people judge blame for an accidental harm, compared with judgments of acceptability.
Moreover reflecting upon the self from an egocentric first person perspective results in greater activation of the MPFC than reflecting upon the self from an imagined third person perspective (3PP 44.
*p < 0.05; (c) significantly greater activation of a fair offer paired with a slightly selfish offer (i.e., offering 40% or 30%) than a very selfish offer (i.e., offering 20% or 10%), and (d) in high stakes than in low stakes.
The interferon-σ-encoding virus demonstrated greater activation of dendritic cells and drove a more profound secretion of proinflammatory cytokines compared to the parental virus.
