Result of univariate analysis showing Talairach coordinates for local maxima regions in each speaking task where voxel clusters ( ≥ 10; p < .05) were significantly more activated for PWS group than for CONT group (PWS>CONT Group) and where regions were significantly more activated in CONT group than PWS group (CONT>PWS Group).

Submaxima coordinates are italicized. Regional coordinates with correspond to those identified in Brown et al's (2005) ALE analysis as stutter-related. All activations were derived after a correction was made for the number of syllables (i.e., speaking rate) produced per scan.
