The neural dynamics associated with computational complexity

Neural correlates of TCC and satisfiability.
(a) Brain activation effect estimates (β) for the high vs. low TCC contrast (βhighTCC − βlowTCC). A positive contrast represents a higher BOLD signal for instances with high TCC compared to low TCC. Significant cluster-wise FWE-corrected (p < 0.05) clusters (with an uncorrected threshold of p < 0.001) are presented for each of the contrasts estimated using the Boxcar analysis. Each panel represents a different period in the solving stage. No significant clusters were found for period S1 nor for the response stage parameters. (b) Brain activation effect estimates (β) for the unsatisfiable vs. satisfiable contrast (βunsatisfiable − βsatisfiable). A positive contrast represents a higher BOLD signal for unsatisfiable instances. Significant cluster-wise FWE-corrected (p < 0.05) clusters (with an uncorrected threshold of p < 0.001) are presented for each of the contrasts estimated using the Boxcar analysis. Each panel represents a different period in the solving stage. No significant clusters were found in the response stage.
