Table Legend: Specific to affect sharing: regions where affect sharing correlated significantly with gray matter volumes, adjusting for prosocial motivation, age, gender, MMSE, total intracranial volume, and magnet strength. Evident in both: regions where both affect sharing and prosocial motivation correlated with gray matter volumes, adjusting for age, gender, MMSE, total intracranial volume, and magnet strength. Specific to prosocial motivation: regions where prosocial motivation correlated significantly with gray matter volumes, adjusting for affect sharing, age, gender, MMSE, total intracranial volume, and magnet strength. All results shown in this table are corrected for family-wise error [FWE] across the whole brain at a significance level of p < 0.05. Locations of peaks are reported in MNI reference space.
