Fig. 5: Representational similarity during recall.
From: Predicting memory from the network structure of naturalistic events

To identify brain regions whose activation patterns during recall reflect the whole semantic narrative network structure, we performed a representational similarity analysis (RSA34). For each cortical parcel, the representational similarity between the fMRI patterns and movie annotations was computed within each movie by correlating the cross-event intersubject pattern similarity matrix and the USE sentence embedding vector similarity matrix. The correlation coefficients were averaged across movies and participants. The resulting mean representational similarity was tested for statistical significance against zero using a randomization test. The whole-brain RSA map was thresholded at q < .05 (FDR-corrected across parcels).
