Note: x, y, and z, MNI coordinates; t, t-score at peak activation level; k, number of voxels in each significant cluster; L and R = left and right hemispheres; ACC = anterior cingulate cortex; PFC = medial prefrontal cortex. Brain regions were based on a whole-brain mask significant at p < .005.

*Regions meeting the multiple comparison threshold of a minimum cluster size of 239 voxels.
