3.2.1 Effects of meditation emotion regulation strategies (vs.
passive viewing)
A whole-brain BREATH vs. LOOK contrast revealed lower activity in
several regions of the DMN, including the precuneus, parahippocampal
gyrus, and posterior cingulate cortex, and also the cuneus and lingual
gyrus (Table 2 , Figure 2b ). There were no clusters
showing the opposite pattern (i.e., higher activity for BREATH relative
to LOOK; Table 2 ) and no significant clusters for the BREATH
vs. LOOK contrast in any DMN ROI (pFWE>0.05). There were
also no significant clusters for the ACCEPT vs. LOOK contrast at the
whole-brain threshold (Table 2 ) or in any DMN ROI (pFWE> 0.05).
