Brain structure: pain anticipation and experience. Left: Significant association between left-hemisphere cortical thickness and mean skin conductance response during pain anticipation (averaged response to low and high pain cues). This analysis was conducted on vertices in a region of interest defined by previous work that tested a similar effect. Right: Significant association between left-hemisphere cortical thickness and mean skin conductance response during pain (averaged response across all temperatures delivered). This result was derived from a whole-brain analysis. All results are for analyses using a cluster-forming threshold of p = 0.005 and a cluster-extent threshold of pFWE = 0.05. Colours reflect pFWE of the cluster.
