Results on the associations between task-based PPI and resting-state functional connectivity and GPT. Task-based PPI analyses indicated that compared to the group with low scores in GPT, the high group exhibited weaker functional connectivity when processing angry faces and fearful faces for vmPFC (a–b), left amygdala (d–e), and right amygdala (g–h) seeds in Cohort 1. Here, high (e.g., > median GPT score) and low (e.g., < median GPT score) group were defined based on the median score of GPT. Seed-based resting-state functional connectivity analyses showed positive correlation of GPT with vmPFC-based (c), positive correlation of GPT with left-amygdala-based (f), and negative correlation of GPT with right-amygdala-based functional connectivity (i) in Cohort 2
