Table 5.

Parameters of models assessing the relationship between the belief that ‘God is first, family is second’ and individual network properties. Reported p-values have been adjusted for FDR and beta coefficients have been standardized. Median connectivity within the network (in) and between a network’s nodes and the rest of the brain (out) are also reported. Across properties, effect sizes (Cohen’s d) were calculated with strength of belief = 1 (not at all) as the reference, with adjustments for unequal sample sizes. A range of effect sizes across properties, and 95% confidence intervals (CI) are provided.
