Fig. 2.

(A) BOLD activation significantly related to the interaction term of self-esteem and attentional control in the left rACC area [x, y, z = −4, 46, 2, t(20) = 4.73, FWE P = 0.03] in the fMRI painting task in the rejection vs negative contrast. Crosshairs are aligned at center of mass. (B) Contrast values were derived from the left rACC area and predicted values were graphed at 1 s.d. above and below the respective means of the centered predictors. Images for display were thresholded at t(21) = 3.78, P < 0.001, extent threshold 10 voxels. Self-esteem (SE), attentional control (AC). *P < 0.05.
