Global brain volumes were significantly correlated with cortisol levels following relocation (n = 18). Pearson partial correlations, controlling for age and intracranial volumes, are shown for: A) Total gray matter (GM) and cortisol r = −0.62 (p = 0.008) and, B) Total cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and cortisol r =0 .67 (p = 0.003). The GM and the CSF volumes are corrected to account for differences in total brain size as indexed by intracranial volume (ICV).
