In gray, those ROIs in which statistical contrasts yielded significant results. Precentral gyrus, dorsolateral frontal cortex; IPL, inferior parietal lobule; n.s., non–significant; F−, negative faces; F0, neutral faces; F+, positive faces; S−, negative scenes; S0, neutral scenes; S+, positive scenes.
