p < 0.05 uncorrected are bolded. Please note, after correcting for multiple comparisons (p < 0.002), that only the left accumbens correlation between volume and gray matter density (GMd) and the left amygdala correlations between volume and shape were significant in controls.

*p < 0.05;

**p < 0.01.
