Violations of physical and psychological expectations in the human adult brain by Liu, Shari, Lydic, Kirsten, Mei, Lingjie, Saxe, Rebecca

“…Left supramarginal gyrus (LSMG) was engaged during physical prediction and responded preferentially to unexpected events from the physical domain, providing evidence for domain-specific physical prediction error. Thus, in adult brains, violations of physical and psychological expectations involve domain-specific, and domain-general, though not purely visual, computations.…”
