Cluster coordinates and anatomical areas are for cluster center of mass as defined by Talairach stereotactic space; Negative (-) signs following anatomical area indicate reduced activation; Descriptors for insula clusters do not reflect stereotactic distinctions, but are estimates based upon the relative location of activation on the group map

Voxelwise statistics are presented with education covaried out; ROI=region of interest; WB=whole brain; a=anterior insula.
