  • ↵aSignificant activation peaks (z score) and the corresponding stereotactic x, y, z coordinates in MNI space for cumulative gambling in the model with serially orthogonalized regressors. Results are significant at p < 0.001, uncorrected, at whole-brain level (t > 3.646), cluster extent threshold >30 voxels, cluster-level p < 0.05 FWE-corrected.
