Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The medial prefrontal cortex is associated with self-referential processing, including daydreaming and visualization of oneself in the future. As Shayla is imagining how good she will look in the dress, it is likely that her medial prefrontal cortex is active. The other options are not as closely associated with this type of activity.
