Shown are results of paired t-tests of regional ALFFs in MBSR group after 8 weeks’ training compared with baseline [cluster level, family-wise error (FWE) corrected, p < 0.05]. ACC.R, right anterior cingulate cortex; pIC.L, left posterior insula; SFGmed.L, left medial superior frontal gyrus; aIC.L, left anterior insula; PostCG.R, right postcentral gyrus; BA, Brodmann area; MNI, Montreal Neurological Institute.
