NAcc Hypoactivation during adolescence following early-life stress. Left panel shows anatomically-defined NAcc regions selected for analysis. Right panel shows the normative developmental change in NAcc activity in children relative to adolescents in the comparison group. In contrast, the ELS group did not show any age-related change, demonstrating NAcc hypoactivity in adolescence. ELS = early life stress; *p<.05, ***p<.01
