Clusters are whole brain corrected for an overall p < 0.01. Estimated Brodmann's areas and coordinates (displayed here in MNI space), were from Talairach and Tournoux (1988) with aid from Harvard-Oxford Atlas for STG subdivisions [i.e. planum temporale (PT)]. Values for local maxima represent peak activation for atlas-derived subdivisions greater than 26 voxels. Only local maxima that fell within distinct Brodmann regions or identified Harvard-Oxford subdivisions are displayed in table. Bolded values represent a priori ROI's. *no distinct local maxima within this region. **cluster corrected at a p < 0.05 level.
