“…Consistent with previous research (e.g., Honey, Thompson, Lerner, & Hasson, 2012;Hasson, Yang, Vallines, Heeger, & Rubin, 2008;Hasson et al, 2004), maximally reliable correlations were observed in primary auditory cortex and adjacent tonotopic regions (Romanski & Averbeck, 2009). Multiple regions known to contribute to language processing also responded reliably in both conditions, including bilateral STS, and the left inferior frontal, supramarginal, and angular gyri, all of which have been linked to linguistic processing to varying extents (Vigneau et al, 2006;Turkeltaub, Eden, Jones, & Zeffiro, 2002;Ferstl & von Cramon, 2001;Robertson et al, 2000, Fiez & Petersen, 1998Binder et al, 1997;Huettner, Rosenthal, & Hynd, 1989). Several "extralinguistic" regions, including the dorsal and ventral mPFC, PCC, TPJ, left inferior frontal sulcus, and inferior and superior occipital gyri, were also reliably responsive in both conditions Wilson, Molnar-Szakacs, & Iacoboni, 2008;Xu, Kemeny, Park, Frattali, & Braun, 2005).…”

Effective real-world communication requires the alignment of multiple individuals to a common perspective or mental framework. To study how this alignment occurs at the level of the brain, we measured BOLD response during fMRI while participants (n = 24) listened to a series of vignettes either in the presence or absence of a valid contextual cue. The valid contextual cue was necessary to understand the information in each vignette. We then examined where and to what extent the shared valid context led to greater intersubject similarity of neural processing. Regions of the default mode network including posterior cingulate cortex and medial pFC became more aligned when participants shared a valid contextual framework, whereas other regions, including primary sensory cortices, responded to the stimuli reliably regardless of contextual factors. Taken in conjunction with previous research, the present results suggest that default mode regions help the brain to organize incoming verbal information in the context of previous knowledge.

“…Editors, authors, and reviewers for neuropsychology journals have historically shown awareness of the importance of effect sizes in facilitating our understanding of research on brain–behavior relationships. To our knowledge, the first overt mention of “effect sizes” in a neuropsychology journal article occurred in a 1989 neuroimaging study of reading by Hueuttner et al, (1989). Even so, it is not uncommon to encounter effect sizes (e.g., correlations, classification accuracy) in reading articles published decades earlier, when neuropsychology was still in its infancy (Reitan, 1955).…”

Objective: For decades, quantitative psychologists have recommended that authors report effect sizes to convey the magnitude and potential clinical relevance of statistical associations. However, fewer than one-third of neuropsychology articles published in the early 2000s reported effect sizes. This study re-examines the frequency and extent of effect size reporting in neuropsychology journal articles by manuscript section and over time. Methods: A sample of 326 empirical articles were drawn from 36 randomly selected issues of six neuropsychology journals at 5-year intervals between 1995 and 2020. Four raters used a novel, reliable coding system to quantify the extent to which effect sizes were included in the major sections of all 326 articles. Results: Findings showed medium-to-large increases in effect size reporting in the Methods and Results sections of neuropsychology journal articles that plateaued in recent years; however, there were only very small and nonsignificant changes in effect size reporting in the Abstract, Introduction, and Discussion sections. Conclusions: Authors in neuropsychology journals have markedly improved their effect size reporting in the core Methods and Results sections, but are still unlikely to consider these valuable metrics when motivating their study hypotheses and interpreting the conceptual and clinical implications of their findings. Recommendations are provided to encourage more widespread integration of effect sizes in neuropsychological research.
