Fig. 2. Region of interest analyses in left and right amygdala clusters.
Compared to waiting list patients (WG), treated patients (TG) show reduced activation during Maintain blocks (p < .05). BOLD % signal change during Maintain minus Reappraisal blocks across both amygdalae was positively correlated with panic severity in untreated (WG, p = .01) but not treated patients (TG). Note: Error bars show SEM. Panic severity is calculated as the mean of the scores achieved on ACQ and BSQ
