Table 3:

Correlation between trait aggression (BPQ total score) and global efficiency in the left habenula, the left thalamus, the left dorso-lateral prefrontal cortex, and the right temporal pole separately for the reactive aggressive group and control group.

Global efficiency
L habenula L thalamus L dlPFC R temporal pole
Reactive aggressive(n=11)
BPQ trait aggression (total score) Spearman’s r −0.735* −0.384 −0.039 −0.329
p-value 0.01 0.244 0.909 0.324
Controls (n=12)
BPQ trait aggression (total score) Spearman’s r 0.217 0.337 −0.294 −0.168
p-value 0.498 0.284 0.353 0.601

Significant correlations are shown in bold face (p<.0125; Bonferroni-corrected for n=4 tests in the reactive aggressive group).
