Brain regional activation to alcohol- and cannabis-related words in contrast to neutral color words in alcohol use disorder (AUD) and control (CTL) subjects while performing an addiction Stroop color match-to-sample task. Activation clusters reported were significant at cluster-forming threshold corrected for multiple comparisons at level p < 0.05 voxels using a voxel threshold of p = 0.001.
