Figure 5.

Neural mappings of value, confidence, and deliberation obtained with alternative GLM. The maps display significant correlates of Val (red), Conf (blue) and DT (green) in the medial PFC. A, Statistical map (same as in Fig. 4B) obtained with the main GLM is shown for comparison. B, Statistical map obtained with the same GLM when serial orthogonalization was removed. C, Statistical map obtained with the same GLM when events were modeled with a boxcar function encompassing the period from trial onset to first button press. For all maps, sagittal slices were taken at the same coordinates as the Neurosynth output (shown in Fig. 4A), and superimposed on the average anatomic scan normalized to canonical (MNI) template. Maps were thresholded at p < 0.05 after voxel-wise family-wise error correction for multiple comparisons. For all maps, only the main clusters of interest located in the medial PFC are shown. For clusters outside the medial PFC, please refer to Extended Data Figures 4-1, 4-2, 4-3, 5-1, 5-2 and 5-3.
