Mood and self-esteem alterations during and after acceptance and neutral blocks in relation to change in BPND in the NAc. P-values indicate significance of the relationship between change in BPND and the comparisons indicated by the headings. N indicates the number of participants included in the analysis based on completion of mood surveys. P-values are uncorrected. Asterisks (*) indicates p<0.05. Not all subjects completed questionnaires, hence counts in each cell are < 75.
