Task-irrelevant economic values independent of hedonic and utilitarian values (IHV ∩ IUV)

 

n.s.

  1. Brain regions showing common value representations for hedonic and utilitarian goods at explicit (EHV ∩ EUV) and task-irrelevant (IHV ∩ IUV) value judgments.A conjunction analysis based on a conjunction null hypothesis. The uncorrected statistical threshold was p < 0.001, which was corrected to p < 0.05 using cluster size. Coordinates are reported in the stereotaxic space of the MNI.
  2. Abbreviations: vmPFC (ventromedial prefrontal cortex); VS (ventral striatum); SVC (small volume correction); EUV (explicit utilitarian values); IHV (task-irrelevant hedonic values); EHV (explicit hedonic values); IUV (task-irrelevant utilitarian values); n.s. (non-significant); MNI (Montreal Neurological Institute).
