Intentional forgetting (TBF-F>TBR-F).

Results at a voxel P<0.001, uncorrected for multiple comparisons. L/R = left/right; x, y, z: coordinates (mm) in the stereotactic space defined by the Montreal Neurological Institute (MNI). K = cluster size. Numbers in [] (column 2) correspond to references of studies reporting foci of brain activity close to those observed in the present study (location in x,y,z axes<10 mm).
