From: Cross-modal deactivations during modality-specific selective attention

Figure 6

Analysis of activity in the visual cortex indicated that there was significantly greater deactivation during attention to the auditory modality than during attention to the visual modality, and that the absence of a target did not diminish this effect (A). In the auditory cortex, there was significantly less activity during visual attention than during auditory attention (B). This effect was modulated by the target such that the absence of a target reduced the magnitude of both the activation observed during auditory attention and the deactivation observed during visual attention (B).
