Results from a comparison between the pre-resting state and meditation state (p < 0.001 uncorrected, k ≥ 10, cluster FWE < 0.001). Correlation indicates functional connectivity between the ROI and other brain regions during the pre-resting state and meditation state (**p < 0.01). T indicates peak T-values. For the Voxels (voxels per cluster) column, only clusters of 10 or more voxels are shown. After-effect (AE) indicates differences in correlations between the pre-resting and post-resting states (†p < 0.001 uncorrected, k ≥ 10, small volume collection). BA: Brodmann area; l: left; r: right; VSs: ventral caudate (superior); MTG: middle temporal gyrus; STG: superior temporal gyrus.
