Note. BA refers to putative Broadman’s areas. x, y, and z refer to MNI coordinates; t refers to the t-score at those coordinates (local maxima); k refers to the number of voxels in each significant cluster. MPFC, medial prefrontal cortex; VLPFC, ventrolateral prefrontal cortex; DMPFC, dorsomedial prefrontal cortex; VS, ventral striatum; SMA, supplementary motor area; TPJ, temporoparietal junction; STS, superior temporal sulcus; dACC, dorsoanterior cingulate cortex; DLPFC, dorsolateral prefrontal cortex; – indicates no significant clusters were identified.
