  1. Full statistics for the mixed effects models of the activity in each a priori ROI, for the stimulus level effect. Significant p values (uncorrected p < 0.05) are marked in bold.
  2. CI confidence interval, DF degrees of freedom, L left, R right, aMCC anterior midcingulate cortex, dpIns dorsal posterior insula, Med Thal medial thalamus, VPL/M Thal ventral posterior thalamus, PAG periaqueductal gray.
