x y z = coordinates in MNI space; k = number of voxels; R, right, L, left; results are reported at a cluster-level threshold of P < 0.05, family-wise error (FWE) corrected and a minimal cluster size of 50 voxels result in italic are based on a threshold of P< 0.001, uncorrected and a minimal cluster size of 50 voxels; auto-correlations with the seed region are not listed as results.
