Neural correlates of reappraisal-related decrease in the amygdala response that were tested as potential mediators of age-amygdala relationship

Region Hemisphere # Voxels r MNI Coordinates Correlate with age?
x y z
Active regulation, Regulation/negative > Reactivity/negative
Amygdala R 154 −.61 21 −3 −18 no
Passive re-presentation, Regulation/negative > Reactivity/negative
Middle frontal gyrus R 55 .52 30 66 0 yes
Inferior parietal lobule L 67 .47 51 −45 30 no

For hemisphere, R=right, L=left, M=medial. r=maximum correlation statistic between reappraisal-related amygdala decrease and regulation> reactivity activation for a given cluster. Negative r values indicate that recruitment during reappraisal predicted smaller reappraisal-related amygdala drops while positive r values predict larger reappraisal-related amygdala drops. “Correlate with age?” indicates whether or not region correlated with age.
