Functional grouping and cortical-subcortical interactions in emotion: A meta-analysis of neuroimaging studies (2008, unknown): “Consistently, activation in PCC has shown linear increases with self-relevance (Moran et al., 2006), and recent TMS work has shown that PCC is essential for episodic memory retrieval of self-representations (but not for other-representations; Lou et al., 2004).”

Associations and dissociations between default and self-reference networks in the human brain (2011, background): “…tasks that permit or encourage explicit self-referential processing have consistently yielded activation in MPFC and PCC (i.e., a self-reference network) (d'Argembeau et al., 2005; Johnson et al., 2002; Kelley et al., 2002; Moran et al., 2006; Northoff and Bermpohl, 2004; Northoff et al., 2006).”

Dissociable medial prefrontal contributions to judgments of similar and dissimilar others. (2006, background): “Moreover, the alternative interpretation for the observed mPFC dissociation is undermined by recent demonstrations (Moran et al., 2006) that, while ventral mPFC is differentially engaged by the degree of self-relevant processing, its activity does not correlate with affective/emotion-based…”
Processing of social and monetary rewards in the human striatum. (2008, result): “This result was consistent with a previous study that showed that the mPFC was activated when trait adjectives were judged to be self-descriptive regardless of trait valence (Moran et al., 2006).”
Rumination and the default mode network: Meta-analysis of brain imaging studies and implications for depression (2020, unknown): “Similarly, the amPFC and PCC are robustly activated when participants simulate assumed future events related to themselves (Andrews-Hanna et al., 2010; Schacter et al., 2008), especially in a naturalistic context which had previously been experienced (Szpunar et al., 2009).”

Contributions of episodic retrieval and mentalizing to autobiographical thought: evidence from functional neuroimaging, resting-state connectivity, and fMRI meta-analyses (2014, background): “…large portion of the variance in aMPFC activity during introspective tasks (Andrews-Hanna et al., 2010a), and aMPFC activity increases with perceived self-relevancy (Macrae et al., 2004; Mitchell et al., 2006; Moran et al., 2006, 2009; Benoit et al., 2010; Krienen et al., 2010; Denny et al., 2012).”
