From: Neural mechanisms for learning self and other ownership
vmPFC and ACCs track ownership associative strength (OAS) for self more than stranger, but carry signals of all three agents. a vmPFC (area 14 m extending to 11 m) signals covary with OAS for self more than stranger (p < .05 FWE-SVC), but respond significantly from 0 in each of the three conditions (all ps < .008). b Cluster overlaid on an anatomical scan of the medial surface. c Bivariate correlations between vmPFC responses to self OAS and the self learning rate and d correlations between vmPFC responses to self OPEs and self learning rate. In both cases, correlations with the self learning rates and neural responses were significantly stronger than associations between vmPFC responses to friend and stranger and respective learning rates (during the tracking of OAS) and vmPFC responses to stranger and stranger learning rates (during the tracking of OPEs). e Cluster overlaid on an anatomical scan of the medial surface. f Negative ACC signals covary with OAS for self more than stranger (p < .05 FWE-whole brain), but respond significantly differently from 0 in each of the three conditions (all ps < .010). Error bars indicate standard error of the mean. N = 39
