I know that the aseg atlas provides a number of voume measures (e.g. EstimatedTotalIntraCranialVol, TotalGrayVol), but is there a variable for an average cortical thickness? I'd like to see if thickness in some of the regions is associated with a variable of interest over and above an overall main effect, so would like to control for the average thickness, but can't figure out a good way to do that.
Thanks! Maria

In ?h.aparc.stats, you'll find a line like
# Measure Cortex, MeanThickness, Mean Thickness, 2.40617, mm
You'll have to get the value for each hemi and compute the mean
