Ok, I ran that and a couple questions.  I ran it on 2 different subjects and got the exact same value, is that expected?  Do I need to run it for each subject?

Also, do I need to do this for event-related designs as well, or just block designs?  I tried to run it on another analysis I did, an event-related one, but got this error:

 ??? Error using ==> times
Matrix dimensions must agree.

   You can run it anytime after the analysis. The 'X' file below is
   an actual file that is there (X.mat). The value that you get out
   of this procedure should be used to multiply the values you get
   out of roisummary-sess.

       I'm working with Yaoda Xu.          Thanks for the percent signal change fix, but I"m a little
       confused by what you wrote.  When do I run that? after running
       roisummary-sess?  Or after the analysis is run?


       Also, is the load('X' a placeholder where I need to put
       load('filename')? or will it just work as is?  Obviously I
       change the session and analysis in the cd line.          And is that a flat scale factor for all conditions for that
       subject?

              Hi all,

              I'm doing ROI analysis on functional data with an
       anatomical
              label, and while the activity looks strong and robust in
              tksurfer, the % signal changes I am getting are very
       low (and
              much lower than we've previously found), and I'm not sure
              what's going on.

              I'm running Freesurfer 4.5 on red hat linux.

              The design is a blocked design with 4 non-null conditions,
              baseline is fixation.  Attached is a picture of the
       activity I
              get for 2 subjects for on of the conditions vs fixation
              (baseline) at a p<0.05 threshold with the ROI outlined in
              black as well as the output from roisummary-sess for
       these two
              subjects in that roi.  I calculate % signal change based of
              the output from roisummary-sess, dividing each condition by
              the baseline in that file and then multiplying by 100.  %
              signal changes are listed below, along with all
       commands run.

              % signal change:
