Table 2. Results using a parametric model for analysis of the fMRI data.

This table shows all activation that survived cluster level correction (P<0.05 FWE corrected; threshold of P<0.005 used to define the clusters) for the following contrasts: main effects of offer amount (collapsed across all trials; M, L and H); main effects of inequality orthogonalised with respect to offer amount (firstly collapsed across all trials and secondly collapsed across the matched M-in-L and M-in-H trials); and the effects of context (M-in-L v. M-in-H) on each of these parametric regressors. For each cluster is shown: the three constituent peaks with the highest Z-scores; the number of voxels at P<0.005 (uncorrected); and the P-value of the cluster after FWE correction across the whole brain. (SMA = Supplementary Motor Area; SFG = Superior Frontal Gyrus; MFG = Middle Frontal Gyrus; MCC = Middle Cingulate Cortex; STS = Superior Temporal Sulcus; MTG = Middle Temporal Gyrus; STG = Superior Temporal Gyrus).
