Note. The reporting range of the effect size is rounded to 2 decimals, and therefore, some values are displayed as 0.00; however, all voxels have non-zero effect sizes. A, Agreeableness; Age, mean age of the studied sample; C, Conscientiousness; E, Extraversion; Global, the inclusion of any global brain indices (ICV, TGMV, TBV) as covariate (study that did not include any global indices as covariate as the reference); ICV, the inclusion of ICV as covariate (study that did not include ICV as covariate as the reference); ImPros, image processing method (VBM (reference) versus SBM); N, Neuroticism; O, Openness; OtTrait, the inclusion of other Big Five personality traits as covariate (study that did not include other personality traits as covariate as the reference); Scan, scanner magnetic field strength; Sex, percentage of females in the study; Smooth, smooth kernel; QA, quality score; TGMV, the inclusion of TGMV as covariate (study that did not include TGMV as covariate as the reference); ThrCor, threshold correction (uncorrected versus cluster-level correction versus voxel-/vertex-level correction); #CV, total number of covariates.
