The location of the maximum pixel values were expressed in the human brain atlas of Talairach. Z-score correspond to the actual maximum pixel value within the brain region from the SPM (Voxelwise p < 0.005, uncorrected, cluster p < 0.03, corrected, k > 64, Monte Carlo simulation). L = left; R = right; BA = Brodmann’s area. SMA = supplemental motor area.
