Areas with significantly stronger activations in musically naive controls compared to pianists during performance of parallel movements versus rest
| Cluster | Area | BA | x, y, z | T‐level |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | R mid. frontal gyrus, dPMC | 6 | 32, −3, 52 | 3.65a |
| 2 | Anterior cingulate | 32 | 10, 17, 25 | 3.79a |
| 3 | R cerebellum, ant. hemisphere | — | 22, −55, −17 | 4.93a |
| 4 | L cerebellum, ant. hemisphere | — | −24, −59, −24 | 3.77a |
| 5 | R inf. temporal gyrus | 20 | 55, −32, −15 | 4.44 |
| 6 | R occipital, lingual gyrus | 17 | 6, −90, −4 | 4.07 |
| L occipital, lingual gyrus | 19 | −2, −84, −8 | 3.71 | |
| 7 | R striatum | — | 28, 19, −3 | 3.74 |
Coordinates x, y, z express the position of the voxel with peak activation level (P < 0.001, uncorrected, extent threshold 10 voxels) within the cluster [in mm] relative to the anterior commissure [AC] in the stereotactic space [Talairach and Tournoux, 1988]. Coordinates: x, lateral distance from the midline (+ right, − left); y, anteroposterior distance from the AC (+ anterior, − posterior); z, height relative to the AC line (+ above, − below).
P < 0.05 small volume corrected for multiple spatial comparisons. BA, Brodmann area; L, left; R, right; mid., middle; ant., anterior; inf., inferior; dPMC, dorsal premotor cortex.
