FIGURE 4.

Relationship Between Change Score From Baseline to Follow-Up on the Response to Stressful Experiences Scale and Changes in Activation in the Right Anterior Insula (N=25)^a

^afMRI scanning took place at baseline and again approximately 10 weeks later, within 2 weeks after a stressful immersive training session at the Infantry Immersion Trainer. As insula activation decreased from baseline to follow-up, resilience characteristics increased (r=−0.42). BOLD=blood-oxygen-level-dependent.
