A corrigendum on
Impaired cross-talk between mesolimbic food reward processing and metabolic signaling predicts body mass index

by Simon, J. J., Skunde, M., Hamze Sinno, M., Brockmeyer, T., Herpertz, S. C., Bendszus, M., et al. (2014). Front. Behav. Neurosci. 8:359. doi: 10.3389/fnbeh.2014.00359

We have found a small error in Figure 4 in our manuscript. Inadvertently, we presented the beta value for the total effect instead of the beta value for the direct effect there. As also written in the text and in Table 3, under the arrow that connects “Ventral Striatum Activity” with “Body Mass Index” it must read c′1 = 0.31 (without asterisks). Please find attached the amended Figure.
