  • Reference voxels are peak activity voxels in right insular, right prefrontal, right parietal, and left cerebellar regions shown by subtraction analysis (Fig. 2).

  • x, y, z stereotaxic coordinates of voxels with maximal correlation; r, Pearson's correlation coefficient.

  • ↵F2-160 p < 0.01,

  • ↵* p < 0.005, other, <0.0001 (p values (Fisher'sr to z).
