Brain regions labels, their corresponding Brodmann area (BA), and Talairach coordinates of the weighted center for each cluster showing greater probability of activation resulting from group subtraction using only the non-social study foci. Anatomical labels are based on the Talairach atlas. Each cluster was observed with a peak p value ≤ 0.01, corrected; Activation Likelihood Estimates (ALE) are reported. L: Left; R: Right.
