CHR, alcoholics, chronic condition; ABST, alcoholics, abstinence condition; ALC ACU, acute alcohol condition; pcor, corrected p value; kEXT, cluster size extent (number of voxels); pheight, significant p threshold; FWE, familywise error (=peak height corrected for multiple voxel comparisons); T, peak voxel t statistic.

aSignificant clusters obtained at a voxel-level pheight < 0.001 corrected with a cluster-level pcluster < 0.05 corrected and a cluster threshold of 200 voxels.

bSignificant clusters obtained at a voxel-level pheight < 0.001 uncorrected with a cluster-level pcluster < 0.05 corrected and a cluster threshold of 200 voxel.
