Group activation differences, whole brain analysis: a) activations for the within-subjects contrast <i>self > other</i>.

<p>b) Activations for the between-subjects contrast <i>no-threat > self-threat</i> (negative feedback on the intelligence test result) c) Activations for the between-subjects contrast <i>positive traits > negative traits</i> (self-reference only). All activations are shown for a threshold of <i>p</i> < 0.001 uncorrected, reporting only clusters that have <i>p</i> < 0.05 corrected on cluster level.</p

Mean values and standard error mean of <i>D_b</i> and <i>D_m</i> for statistical fractals obtained by DLA.

<p>On the left side of the figure fractals with an image matrix size of 512×512 pixels and 256×512 pixels for the image halves were analyzed. On the right side of the figure fractal analysis based on image matrix size of 364×436 pixels and 182×436 pixels for the image halves showing significant differences in <i>D_b</i> due to image matrix size. Asterisks indicate significant differences in group comparisons: * p<0.05, ** p<0.01.</p

Mean values of <i>D_b</i> and <i>D_m</i> for the patients’ hemispheres with AVM (P_AVM), hemispheres without AVM (P_{no AVM}) and the entire brain (P_total).

<p>Mean values of <i>D_b</i> and <i>D_m</i> for healthy controls including the left and right hemispheres (HC_left, HC_right) and the entire brain (HC_total). Mean values of <i>D_b</i> and <i>D_m</i> are presented for ten statistical fractals obtained by DLA for images different image matrix sizes. Values are as mean ± standard error of the mean (SEM).</p
