The A1 and A2 represent the factor levels of neutral‐cues and heroin‐cues, respectively. The B1 and B2 represent the factor levels of nondrug use group and heroin‐dependent group, respectively. In each pair (column) of comparison, the sign (+) indicates that the neural responses are significantly higher in the first factor level than the second; the sign (−) indicates significantly lower. The sign (ns) indicates not significant. The significant level is set at P < 0.01 with multiple comparison correction.
