Correlation of dispositional cognitive reappraisal with neural activation decrease over the course of symptom provocation for phobic compared with neutral pictures in the a) phobic and b) control group for exploratory whole brain analyses (marked with ^E) and regions of interest analyses (p_fwe < .05); tendentially significant results p_fwe < .1 are marked with ⁺; all coordinates (x, y, z) are given in MNI space. H hemisphere, L left, R right, Z_max maximum Z-value, p_fwe fwe-corrected p-value (small-volume correction).
