"At the same time I made a mental decision that it wasn't going to affect my life, so I shut it out".

This finding again supports the assumption that in the mental decision tasks (here magnitude comparison) participants indeed executed additional mental processes related to processing the semantics of the presented numbers.

Since IPS activation has also been shown to be associated with processes of response preparation [ 30] as well as hand and finger based response processes [ 34], a mental decision paradigm was chosen to keep activation related to response preparation and/or execution at a minimum (for further details please see the Discussion).

To do so, we presented a systematic combination of passive tasks (numerical and non-numerical stimulus material) and numerical tasks with mental decision (magnitude relevant and magnitude irrelevant) to keep activation related to response preparation and/or execution at a minimum.
