Note: Top panel shows group differences using random-effects independent samples t-tests for negative condition specifically. Bottom panel shows the results of the interaction test (ie, Controls vs. Patients for Negative Minus Neutral Contrast). All reported foci met appropriate whole-brain type I error correction (z > 3.00, k = 13, Corresponding to P < .05, Monte Carlo Corrected Given Employed Smoothing Level). SCZ, patients with schizophrenia; CON, controls.
