Ted by circles and corrected at P < 0.05 FWE) and parameter estimates reveal that hypothetical moral decisions map closely onto the brain's construction system. (B). Real Moral Network: Contrasting the Decide event of the Real PvG > Imagine PvG activates bilateral TPJ and amygdala. A priori ROIs and parameter estimates for these regions were found to be more significant during the Real decision than during the Imagine decision. (C). Shared Moral Network: A conjunction analysis of Real and Imagine moral decisions reveals robust activation in the empathy for pain matrix, and parameter estimates of the middle cingulate and bilateral insula illustrate comparable activations for both conditions. All coordinates in MNI space and results portrayed on sections of the mean structural scan at P < 0.005 uncorrected. Both whole brain analysis (P < 0.001 uncorrected) and a priori regions of interest (FWE P < 0.05) were used for all contrasts. A complete list of activated areas and ROIs can be found in Tables 2?.Shared moral networks We ran a conjunction analysis of all moral decisions to determine if there is a common neural circuitry between real and hypothetical moral decisions (real moral decisions compared with non-moral decisions, along with imagined moral decisions compared with non-moral decisions (Real PvG Decide ?Imagine PvG Decide). The results revealed that moral decisions, regardless of condition, shared common activation patterns in the bilateral insula (extending posterior to anterior), middle cingulate (MCC), bilateral dlPFC and bilateral TPJextending into the posterior superior temporal sulcus (BA 40which differs from the peak coordinates found for real moral decisions; Figure 2C; Table 4). Real vs imagine feedback Although subjects' distress ratings across moral tasks were not significantly different [F(1) < 1, P ?0.99 (Figure 1E)], we wanted to first ensure that the video feedback event in the Real PvG was not driving activation during the Decision event and then examine the Deciders'Neural basis for real moral decisionsTable 2 Decide event of Imagine PvG contrasted to Real PvG (Imagine PvG Decide > Real Decide)Region Right hippocampus Left hippocampus Right posterior parietal cortex Right occipital lobe Right PCC rACC/MFG Right mid temporal lobe Left mid temporal lobe Left dlPFC MCC Left caudate Right putamen A priori ROIs vmPFC Right superior frontal sulcusa Right hippocampusa Left parahippocampus gyrusa Right parahippocampus gyrusa Left posterior parietal cortexa Right posterior parietal cortexa mPFCb dlPFCb Left angular gyrusb Right angular gyrusb PCCbaSCAN (2012)Table 4 Conjunction analysis of all moral decisions (Real PvG Decide ?Imagine PvG Decide)Region Visual cortex Right insula Left insula Right TPJ Left TPJ Mid cingulate Right dlPFC Left dlPFC A priori ROIs Right AG-490 cost anterior insula Left anterior insulaa ACCa Left TPJb Right TPJb Right TPJ/Angular Elbasvir price gyruscaPeak MNI coordinates 34 ?2 42 6 8 4 64 ?0 ?8 ? 46 ?8 28 ?0 ?8 ?6 ?4 ?2 44 ?8 ?8 32 ?6 ?0 18 MNI coordinates 3 27 21 ?8 0 33 ?8 45 1 44 ?8 50 ? 24 27 ?4 ?5 ?2 ?8 ?5 53 36 ?8 ?0 ?7 ? 45 ?2 ?5 ?2 24 24 22 28 25 28 36 ? ?0 38 24 38 6 ?0 ? 42 46 20z value 5.70 3.80 5.39 5.45 4.10 5.02 5.10 4.48 4.26 4.08 3.95 5.20 t-statistic 3.78 3.78 6.81 7.80 6.77 3.80 4.56 3.80 5.08 4.09 4.33 4.Peak MNI coordinates 10 52 ?2 64 ?0 ? 32 ?4 ?6 12 12 ?6 ?3 2 44 42 MNI coordinates 60 ?8 ? ?3 50 50 15 12 6 ?1 ?5 ?6 3 2 42 6 9 20 16 ? 2 30 20 42 28z value 7.55 5.84 4.51 5.15 4.02 6.67 3.91 3.92 t-st.Ted by circles and corrected at P < 0.05 FWE) and parameter estimates reveal that hypothetical moral decisions map closely onto the brain's construction system.
