Curvilinear effects of fear of death on self-death-specific activation

		Coordinates			Peak-level	Cluster-level
Hemi	Region	x	y	z	t-Value	k	P (FWE)
U-shaped correlation
	No suprathreshold voxels
Inverted-U-shaped correlation
R	Posterior cingulate cortex	14	−54	30	4.72	225	0.040
L	Posterior cingulate cortex/Ventricle	−22	−52	16	5.17	245	0.030

Notes: Contrast: (SD–SND)–(OD–OND); that is, self-specific activation for death-related words.

Coordinates (x, y, z) of the activation peak in the Montreal Neurological Institute space, peak t-value, size of the activated cluster in number (k) of voxels (2 × 2 × 2 mm), and P-value (corrected to P < 0.05 using cluster size) at the peak are given.

Hemi = hemisphere, R = right, L = left. FWE = family wise error.
