Notes: The threshold for significant activation was p < .002 (two-tailed) for a spatial extent of 10 voxels, uncorrected for multiple comparisons. Region labels apply to the entire extent of the cluster. T-values, p-values, and MNI coordinates are for the peak activated voxel in each cluster only. BA=Brodmann area, L=left, R=right, SMA=supplementary motor area.
