BA = Brodmann Area; BNST = bed nucleus of the stria terminalis; dACC = dorsal anterior cingulate cortex; GAD = generalized anxiety disorder; OFC = orbitofrontal cortex; PVN = periventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus. In italics, results that did not survive multiple comparison correction. All other results are significant are a corrected p ≤ 0.05. t=T-test (peak-level); df= degrees of freedom
