“…First, we assessed the simple effect of load for deductive (D) and non‐deductive (ND) trials (i.e., [complex > simple] ND and [complex > simple] D ), and, following, we assessed the interaction effect of load and task type (i.e., [complex – simple] ND > [complex – simple] D and [complex – simple] D > [complex – simple] ND ). In order to avoid reverse activations (Morcom & Fletcher, ), each contrast was masked to only include voxels for which the sum of the z‐score statistic of the minuend and subtrahend was equal to or greater than zero (cf., DeWolf, Chiang, Bassok, Holyoak, and Monti, ). For the simple effect of load in deduction, for example, the mask was created by only including voxels for which while, for the interaction effect the mask was created by only including voxels for which ].…”
