Brain regions in which relative local grey matter volume was associated with trait self-esteem.

<p>Regions of interest (ACC, LPFC, hypothalamus, hippocampus) are listed if they were significant at <i>p</i><0.001 (uncorrected; 5-voxel minimum cluster size) in the whole-brain analysis. Regions of interest that survived small volume correction (FWE-corrected at cluster-level, <i>p</i><.05; following initial thresholding at <i>p</i><0.001, uncorrected) are indicated with an asterisk; the hippocampus marginally survived small volume correction (<i>p</i> = .079). The TPJ was not <i>a priori</i> hypothesized but was still significant after correction for multiple comparisons (FWE-corrected at cluster-level, <i>p</i><0.05; following initial thresholding at <i>p</i><0.001, uncorrected; 5-voxel minimum cluster size) in the whole-brain analysis. The individual <i>p</i>-values listed indicate the level of significance that each particular region met. R and L refer to right and left hemispheres; <i>x</i>, <i>y</i>, and <i>z</i> refer to MNI coordinates; <i>t</i> refers to the <i>t</i>-score at those coordinates (local maxima); <i>k</i> refers to the number of voxels in each significant cluster. The following abbreviations are used for the names of specific regions: temporoparietal junction (TPJ), anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), lateral prefrontal cortex (LPFC).
