Coordinates are in MNI152 mm space. Results were thresholded at Z > 1.96 (p < 0.05) and corrected for multiple comparisons at the cluster level (p < 0.05)

^aThe hypoactivation in the right posterior superior temporal sulcus (pSTS) was detected in all these three comparisons (see Fig. 2). Because the right pSTS is not one of the pre-defined anatomical regions of the AAL2 atlas, it was not listed here. In our results, the hypoactivation in the right pSTS was primarily in the anatomical region of the right middle temporal gyrus
