Dear freesurfer team,
I’m trying to use freesurfer LME tools to check whether baseline BMI scores (BMI scores at the first timepoint) have a statistically significant effect/impact on longitudinal thickness changes accounting for baseline age and gender. The model I’m thinking of is:
Y_ij = b0 + b1 * t_ij + b2 * bslBMI_i + b3 * bslBMI_i * t_ij + b4 * gender_i + b5 * bslAge_i
and the contrast CM.M = [0 0 0 1 0 0]. Is this a correct way of doing it or did I misinterpret something?
Thank you. -Donatas
