- Abstract
- The temporoparietal junction (TPJ) is a heteromodal association cortex located, in each hemisphere, at the intersection of the parietal and the temporal lobe. Its functions are mainly associated with attention and social cognition. Its anterior and posterior parts have distinct connectivity and functional profiles, suggesting that they deal with different high-level processes contributing to monitoring for salient stimuli and reasoning about oneself and others, respectively
