(A) Example trial of the dictator game. Participants had to decide whether to accept or reject a proposed unequal payoff for themselves and another player within 4 s. The displayed payoffs (in coins) could either be advantageous (Mself > Mother) or disadvantageous (Mother > Mself) for the participant. If participants rejected the unequal split, both the participant and the other player received a fixed amount of 10 coins (equal choice option). (B) Example trial of the director task: participants had to follow the auditory instructions of the director and select the designated target object visible from the director’s view (‘Where is the small ball?’). In control trials, two objects belonging to the same category were presented (e.g. two balls), but only one of the objects matched the exact instruction of the director and was visible from both perspectives (in this example, the small yellow ball). In experimental trials, the director’s view was incongruent with the participant’s one (here, the smallest, white ball is occluded from director’s view). To identify the target object (in the example, the yellow ball, as it is the smallest ball visible from director’s perspective), participants had to inhibit their own perspective and take the director’s perspective instead. (C/D) Simulations of electric current flow with the SimNIBS toolbox (Saturnino et al., 2019) for the (C) rTPJ and (D) rLPFC electrode placement.
