Note: Empty cell indicates that region is included in the same cluster as the region immediately above. ALIC = anterior limb of internal capsule; BA = Brodmann Area; k = cluster size in number of voxels (voxel size = 3.375 mm3); MNI = Montreal Neurological Institute coordinates; PFC = prefrontal cortex.
Statistics at voxel level set to p < .05, familywise error corrected for the whole brain, height threshold t = 4.36 (gray matter), t = 4.16 (white matter); extent threshold k = 50 voxels.
