Notes: L = left, R = right. The threshold for significant activation was P < 0.005 for a spatial extent of at least 10 voxels, uncorrected for multiple comparisons. Region labels apply to the entire extent of the cluster. The t-values and MNI coordinates are for the peak activated voxel in each cluster only.
