Table 1. Ten most significant ROIs under joint variance (JVAR) test.

Greater significance and lower p-values under JVAR test implies that a ROI better characterizes S+ (n=37) as a group relative to S (n=442) in thickness, area, and volume measurements simultaneously. (a) One-sided F-tests for ratio of variances, with 36 and 441 degrees of freedom, between the groups were performed for thickness, area, and volume variables of each respective ROI. (b) The p-values for the JVAR test statistic Tj=1-Πk=13(1-pjk) were generated through permutation distributions, as described in the Methods section. Significance of all 66 ROIs is provided in Supplementary Table 9. (c) FDR-adjusted p-values are over JVAR tests for 66 ROIs. (d) The left temporal pole had a FDR-adjusted p-value less than 0.05.
