Several covariate analyses were conducted using pre-training brain activation data (session 2). Activation in the posterior lateral occipital cortex (a; red) and supramarginal gyrus (b; blue) significantly predicted pre-training accuracy (during session 1). Activation in the right lateral occipital cortex (c; green) and the left motor cortex (d; yellow) significantly predicted pre-training saccade amplitude during the first observation of an object. Activation in the right motor cortex (e; pink) significantly predicted accuracy improvement (session 9 accuracy − session 1 accuracy)
