Hi Lee, Thank you for your reply. I had read the example tables, but I'm still not sure how to alter them into my study.May be you could help to check the matrix I designed and tell me my mistake? 3 classes ( A / B / C group) and 4 variables (gender, age, education, and Moca test score). group.diff.mtx 1 -1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 group-x-gender.mtx 0 0 0 1 -1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 group-x-age.mtx 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 -1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 group-x-education.mtx 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 -1 0 0 0 0 group-x-moca.mtx 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 -1 0 group-x-gender-x-age-x-education.mtx 0 0 0 1 -1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 -1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 -1 0 0 0 0 group-x-gender-x-age-x-education-x-moca.mtx 0 0 0 1 -1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 -1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 -1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 -1 0
group.diff.mtx also can write as: 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
group-x-age.mtx aslo can write as: 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Thank you in advence. Wishes, Li

Hi Li,
You can find some example FSGD tables here, which you can alter to fit your analyses.

Hi Freesurfer Experts,
I?m a new user of Freesurfer, and I learn how to use this software mainly through Wiki. When I came to the step of using GLM to compare group differences, I was confused on the design of 3g4v matrix. In my study, there were 3 classes ( A / B / C group) and 4 concomitant?variables (gender, age, education, and Moca test score). It?s supposed to be 15 regressors in this design, but I don?t know how to use the numbers (like 1, -1, 0, 0.5, -0.5, etc.) to create a correct matrix. I wonder if you could provide a 3g4v matrix in detail for me. I?ll be grateful if you can help. I hope I?m not bothering you too much, and I?m looking for your reply.
Best wishes,
Li?
