Fig. 2: Brain activation related to spontaneous lies in general and lies under reputation risk.

From: Reputation risk during dishonest social decision-making modulates anterior insular and cingulate cortex activity and connectivity

Fig. 2

Results of GLM1: a coronal and axial slices showing the regions active for lies vs. truths in both conditions, i.e., ACC and AI (purple map) and the left ventromedial section of the left AI for lies in the reputation risky condition (yellow map) (N = 22). b Bar plots of regions more active for lies vs. truths. Gray bar plots for lying in both conditions, and yellow bar plots for spontaneous lies in the reputation risk condition (N = 22). ACC anterior cingulate cortex, lAI/rAI left/right anterior insula, rSMA right supplementary motor area, dlPFC dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, rCau right caudate, NoRep no reputation risk, Rep reputation risk, BOLD blood-oxygen-level-dependent response.
