Brain regions whose gray matter volume is correlated with trait conscientiousness.

Region	Peak MNI coordinate			Peak T score	Cluster size (mm3)
	x	y	z
Positive correlation
Left superior parietal lobe	−22	−80	50	4.99	1640
Right superior parietal lobe	36	−78	48	4.84	2664
Negative correlation
Right middle frontal gyrus	20	6	44	−5.18	1936

Note: The non-stationary cluster correction was employed to determine the regions of significance with the following settings: p < 0.05 at the cluster level and p < 0.0025 at the underlying voxel level. MNI, Montreal Neurological Institute.
