Figure 3

Neural responses to ostracism are altered by selective REM sleep suppression. Left Neural responses for the contrast [EXC/VIEW > INC/VIEW] > [EXC/CRA > INC/CRA] differed significantly between the REMS group and the other two groups in the right amygdala, (peak MNI-coordinates: x = 26, y = − 2, z = − 28, surviving FWE-correction at p < 0.05 inside the a priori mask). Displayed at p < 0.005, uncorrected, for visualization purposes. Right Parameter estimates for the contrast EXC > INC in the VIEW session were positive in the REMS group, but did not deviate from 0 in the other two groups, nor in the CRA session for any of the three groups. In addition, parameter estimates for EXC > INC were significantly more positive in the REMS group during VIEW than during CRA, while sessions did not differ in the other two groups. See main text for details. ***p < 0.001. Error bars represent standard error of the mean.
