Data for "In search of different categories of abstract concepts: a fMRI adaptation study"
Description
The event-related fMRI task was a passive reading task where subjects were presented with abstract or concrete word pairs, consisting of two words belonging to the Same or Different Category conditions. Partcipants were instructed to silently read the words.
