All,
I am going to run an analysis of cortical thickness reproducibility; there are at least two methods that seem obvious. I could run qdec analysis with time1 and time2 as different groups or I could run the methods below. Are the commands below the same ones used in the qdec GUI? As far as I can tell, they will both give me cortical thickness differences on a vertex by vertex basis. There are probably some subtle differences in the way they are coded, but any major changes? Thanks.
