Coordinates are lateral (x), anteroposterior (y), and superior-inferior (z) in mm. In the Connectivity region column: all data are uncorrected, p < 0.001. BA = Brodmann’s area. 2Cluster (8,867 voxels) included both the left and right cerebellum posterior lobes. 3This cluster included the superior temporal gyrus (95 voxels), the Rolandic operculum (150 voxels), insula (76 voxels), and the supplementary motor area (68 voxels).
