Day 11 RHV

0.5581 (*)

−0.2657 (ns)

Day 11 Left Hippocampal dominance

0.0426 (ns)

−0.4338 (ns)

  1. ns: not significant, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01. THV is Total Hippocampal Volume, LHV is Left Hippocampal Volume and RHV is Right Hippocampal Volume. Left Hippocampal dominance is the calculated as (LHV-RHV)/THV. The day indicates the day in the experimental paradigm mentioned in Fig. 1. The values are the Pearson’s r calculated for the pair of volumetric measurement and behavioral task.
