Cluster size = number of voxels; x,y,z = Coordinates (in mm) of significant local maxima are given for information in MNI space (Montreal Neurological Institute, http://www.bic.mni.mcgill.ca). BA: Brodmann area. For regions where an effect was hypothesized a small volume correction (SVC) was performed. P values are given after family wise error (FWE) correction for the particular volume.
