Responding to the emotions of others: dissociating forms of empathy through the study of typical and psychiatric populations. (2005, neutral): “This work indicates the importance of medial prefrontal cortex (especially anterior paracingulate cortex), the temporal-parietal junction, and the temporal poles for the representation of the mental states of others (Brunet, Sarfati, Hardy-Bayle, & Decety, 2000; Castelli, Happe, Frith, & Frith, 2000”
Impaired self-awareness and theory of mind: An fMRI study of mentalizing in alexithymia (2006, neutral): “MPFC activity in the context of a mentalizing task has been studied by many researchers (e.g., Berthoz et al., 2002a,b; Brunet et al., 2000; Castelli et al., 2000, 2002; Ferstl and von Cramon, 2002; Fletcher et al., 1995; Goel et al., 1995; Gallagher et al., 2000; Macrae et al., 2004; Ochsner et al.”
Superior Temporal SulcusIt's My Area: Or Is It? (2008, background): “One of the preselected studies investigated ToM in others and from the self-perspective (Vogeley et al., 2001).”
Empathy: A Social Cognitive Neuroscience Approach (2009, background): “Vogeley et al. (2001) found that a region of right inferior frontal cortex that is engaged when comparing conditions in which a participant attributes a mental state to a character in a story in which the participant is featured and one in which the participant is absent.”
Gender differences in brain networks supporting empathy (2008, result): “However, several other studies have identified similar coordinates of local activation during ToM reasoning or tasks requiring a self–other distinction (e.g., Gallagher et al., 2000; Castelli et al., 2000; Vogeley et al., 2001; Brunet et al., 2000).”
Imaging the Intentional Stance in a Competitive Game (2002, background): “…studies of normal volunteers (Baron-Cohen et al., 1994; Goel et al., 1995; Fletcher et al., 1995; Baron-Cohen et al., 1999; Gallagher et al., 2000; Brunet et al., 2000; Castelli et al., 2000; Vogeley et al., 2001, McCabe et al., 2001) have sought to examine the neural substrates of mentalizing.”
Innocent intentions: a correlation between forgiveness for accidental harm and neural activity. (2009, background): “…non-moral contexts: the medial prefrontal cortex, right and left temporo-parietal junction, and precuneus (Ciaramidaro et al., 2007; Fletcher et al., 1995; Gallagher et al., 2000; Gobbini, Koralek, Bryan, Montgomery, & Haxby, 2007; Ruby & Decety, 2003; Saxe & Kanwisher, 2003; Vogeley et al., 2001).”
The neural correlates of theory of mind within interpersonal interactions (2004, background): “At least four separate studies have asked participants to make inferences about the mental states of characters in stories or cartoons (Brunet et al., 2000; Fletcher et al., 1995; Gallagher et al., 2000; Vogeley et al., 2001).”
Development and neurophysiology of mentalizing. (2003, result): “Inferred knowledge: Goel et al. (1995); stories: Fletcher et al. (1995), Gallagher et al. (2000), Vogeley et al.

What is right-hemisphere contribution to phonological, lexico-semantic, and sentence processing?: Insights from a meta-analysis (2011, neutral): “…such as the generation of the final word of a sentence (Kircher et al., 2001), the understanding of physical stories under a self perspective (Vogeley et al., 2001), the detection of a probe phrase in a dialog (Homae et al., 2003), or the judgment of semantic plausibility (Luke et al., 2002).”
