M-W/t-test: Mann-Whitney U nonparametric test for volumes that were not normally distributed in either group and two-sample test for volumes that were normally distributed in both groups, S-W: Shapiro-Wilk test for normality of distribution. All statistical tests were performed on volumes that were averaged across both hemispheres and normalized to the total intracranial volume.

*:

Significant p values that are below the statistical threshold of p < 0.007 (0.05/7).
