While doing an age corrected qdec comparison between two groups, the analysis resulting from ’Does the average thickness differ between two gps’ showed some potential areas of interest. I then created labels from these areas and mapped them back to all subjects. But when I extracted thickness values and looked at the means, I could not see the same direction of effect – why could this be? Is this a problem with smoothing (I used FWHM 20 for looking at whole brain comparisons)
Cheers
Lena
