Regions-of-interest (ROI) are defined in Fig. 1c. Significant p-values are bolded (p < 0.05, uncorrected, two-tailed). Linear mixed-effect modeling (LMEM) was used to analyze single-trial activation metrics (see Fig. 1e) from mentalizing-active ROI sites (see Fig. 3a). LMEMs controlled for stimulus visual dissimilarity (see Supplementary Methods) and accounted for site- and participant-related heterogeneity by nesting effects within Site and Participant. Separate LMEMs were used per ROI and activation metric (full details in Methods). Type_Other-Self indicates mentalizing type differences, controlled for RT_Behav (Fig. 5c–e). RT_Behav indicates behavioral response time effects, controlled for behavioral response choices (Fig. 4d, e). Choice_True-False indicates behavioral response choice differences, controlled for RT_Behav (task in Fig. 1a). N per ROI (trials x sites): Visual = 8453, TPJ = 3189, ATL = 3046, PMC = 4301, amPFC = 2012, dmPFC = 3438, vmPFC = 1060. Abbreviations: ms = millisecond, z = z-score, b = slope estimate, SE = standard error of b, Visual = visual cortex, ATL = anterior temporal lobe, TPJ = temporoparietal junction, PMC = posteromedial cortex, amPFC = anteromedial prefrontal cortex, dmPFC = dorsomedial prefrontal cortex, vmPFC = ventromedial prefrontal cortex.
