Statistical threshold: p < 0.05 (cluster level corrected for multiple comparisons using a Monte Carlo simulation with 1000 iterations to estimate cluster-level false-positive rates). Abbreviations: L, left hemisphere; R, right hemisphere; BA, Brodmann area; Talairach coordinates of peak voxel, F values of peak voxel for the ANOVA.
