  1. Included 99 stereotactic activation loci from 18 studies, 324 participants, chosen min. cluster size 728 mm3.
  2. All the values and labels were extracted from the GingerALE output files. Clusters are ordered for decreasing volume size. Coordinates (x, y, z) are in the MNI space.
  3. H = Hemisphere; ALE = activation likelihood estimation; Nr. = number of studies that contributed to each cluster; L = left; BA = Brodmann area; ** = between brackets are the number of foci from each study that contributed to that specific cluster.
