Activation was set at a threshold value of p < 0.05 and FWE was corrected for multiple comparisons over the whole brain, with the height threshold set at p < 0.001, uncorrected. The terms x, y, and z represent the stereotaxic coordinates (mm). R, right hemisphere; L, left hemisphere; IFG, inferior frontal gyrus; MFG, middle frontal gyrus; MNI, Montreal Neurological Institute.
