Clusters significant at an uncorrected threshold of p<.005, k ≥ 10 voxels

Up to 3 local maxima that are at least 8mm apart reported for each cluster; when peaks are local maxima within larger clusters, source cluster peak is reported instead of cluster size BA= approximate Brodmann Area; L=Left, R=Right

T

Indicates a cluster size smaller than the designated cluster size of 29
