Design of the fMRI task with the encoding (left) and retrieval (right) sessions.
Translations: MOI-MÊME = myself; POSITIF = positive; DÉJÀ-VU? = Old?; AUTORITAIRE = authoritarian; FIABLE = trustworthy; JOYEUX = happy; PATIENT = patient; PARESSEUX = lazy; FARCEUR = joker; LÂCHE = cowardly; FRANC = honest; OUI = yes; NON = no.
Figure 2.
Brain activity changes associated with successful encoding and retrieval of self-referential information.
Results during encoding (top line) and retrieval (bottom line) are displayed at p<0.05 uncorrected to be used as masks for analyses of SRE.
Figure 3.
Brain activity changes associated with SRP during encoding (left panel).
Results are displayed at p<0.005 uncorrected and k>50 voxels. L = Left, R = Right. The plots represent the mean BOLD value in the self, other and semantic conditions in each cluster of interest. The peaks located in the PCC, ventral MPFC, and left and right hippocampus from this analysis were used to create seeds for functional coupling analyses (right panel).
Figure 4.
Brain functional coupling changes during successful encoding (left) and successful retrieval (right) of self-referential information.
Brain functional coupling changes associated with the PCC (first line), ventral MPFC (second line), left (third line) and right (fourth line) hippocampus are displayed at p<0.05 uncorrected to be used as masks for analyses of SRE.

Brain activity changes associated with SRE during encoding.
Results are displayed at p<0.005 uncorrected and k>50 voxels. L = Left, R = Right.

Figure 6.
Brain functional coupling changes associated with SRE during encoding.
The figure displays the regions showing greater functional coupling with the PCC (top), the ventral MPFC (middle), and the left hippocampus (bottom) during successful encoding of self-referential information compared to the corresponding semantic condition. The results are displayed at p<0.005 uncorrected and k>50 voxels. L = Left, R = Right.
