Brain areas displaying differential activation on viewing incongruent compared with congruent information during the visual search phase. Processing incongruent information elicits stronger activation in nodes of the salience network (anterior insula [AI], inferior frontal gyrus – pars triangularis [IFGtr], dorsal anterior cingulate cortex [DACC], supplementary motor area [SMA], medial frontal gyrus [MeFG]) and of the executive control network (middle frontal gyrus [MFG], IFGtr, inferior frontal gyrus – pars opercularis [IFGop], precentral gyrus [PreCG], superior frontal gyrus [SFG], superior parietal lobule [SPL], inferior parietal lobule [IPL], middle occipital gyrus [MOG]) than processing congruent information following both optimistic and pessimistic expectancies. Statistical parametric maps are thresholded at p < 0.05, whole-brain corrected.
