Dear FreeSurfers
I am trying to control for thickness in another surface using the pvr option in mri_glmfit. However, I'm confused as to how I can include the pvr option correctly in the contrast files. I have two groups, and would like to utilize DODS for this analyses as I think that my groups both have different intercepts and slopes.
This is my fsgd set up :
GroupDescriptorFile 1 Title MyTitle Class Controls CLASS FA Variables Age Input PMS1 Controls 14.442163 Input PMS2 Controls 14.354552 .. Input PMS7 FA 15.726215 Input PMS28 FA 14.45859
This is the command I run: mri_glmfit --y lh.surface.mgh --fsgd SA_age.fsgd --C con.mtx --surf fsaverage lh --cortex --glmdir test.glmdir --pvr lh.thickness.psc.mgh --pvr lh.thickness2.psc.mgh
The contrast I would like to run is: 0 0 0 0 1 -1 so as to look at group interactions within thickness after controlling for another cortical surface. However, I can't get this to run as there is a "Matrix ill-conditioned" error.
The contrast that does run is 0 0 0 0 1 (after passing only one pvr file). But this option seems to be neither dods nor doss. Is there a correct way to do a DODS analyses looking for interactions using the pvr option?
Thank you,
Prapti
