Note. All results presented survive family wise error correction for multiple comparisons at the whole brain level to two-tailed pFWE<.05.

Section A shows clusters that survived corrections for mutliple comparisons that showed a change in ‘Stroop effect’ related activity in the sample overall at post-treatment versus beginning-of-treatment (N=26).

Section B shows clusters that survived corrections for multiple comparisons from separate whole-brain rank-order non-parametric correlations with the change in Stroop effect contrast and measures of treatment engagement (i. Number of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) Sessions (N=26); ii. Total Number of Contingency Management (CM) Prizes within those randomized to CM (N=14); iii. Number of Days of Disulfiram Treatment Taken within those randomized to medication (N=10)); and within-treatment cocaine use (iv. Percent Days Cocaine Abstinent During the Treatment Period (N=26)).

Abbreviations: Inc= incongruent trials, Con=congruent trials, Beginning= beginning-of-treatment, Post=post-treatment, R=right, L=left, k=cluster size (in voxels), CM=contingency management; CBT= cognitive behavioral therapy.

The figures which correspond to the these results are as follows: For section A, see Figure 1A, extracted cluster means in Figure 1B, and “whole-brain” slice-out images in Supplemental Figure 2 (as well as full slice-out images for the beginning of treatment Stroop effect and post-treatment Stroop effect contrasts separately in Supplemental Figure 1). For section B, see Figure 2 and “whole-brain” slice-out images in Supplemental Figure 3.
