 No clusters survived correction for multiple comparisons

x, y, and z = the MNI coordinates (mm) corresponding to the left–right, anterior–posterior, and inferior–superior axes, respectively; t, the highest t-score within a region; thresholded at t > 3.36 (P < 0.005); corrected for multiple comparisons at the cluster level (P < 0.05).
