Left and right amygdala functional connectivity in the whole sample. Left and right amygdala functional connectivity with the rest of the brain was determined using a one sample t-test (p < 0.05, corrected). Both the left and right amygdala showed positive connectivity with the medial frontal cortex, middle and anterior cingulate as well as the superior temporal cortex and sensorimotor areas. Positive connectivity to the basal ganglia, the hippocampus, the fusiform and the insula was also observed. Areas with negative correlation to the left and right amygdala included the lateral frontal cortex, parietal lobe and occipital cortex in addition to the precuneus, posterior cingulate and a region of the inferior temporal cortex (left amygdala connectivity is pictured in (A), while right amygdala connectivity is pictured in (B)).
