Note: z-scores were not calculated for 3 studies (1, 2 and 17) due to a lack of information. Where T statistics and F statistics were reported, z-scores were calculated using standard SPM and Matlab scripts for conversion into 1-tailed z-scores. For studies where only p values were reported, the p values were converted into their standardized z-score. Where bilateral clusters were reported for the same neural region, an average z-score for the left and right cluster is reported. Similarly, where multiple clusters of activation were reported for the same neural region, an average z-score for the neural region is reported.

a

Approached significance.

b

Maxima of the cluster did not originate in the OFC.
