Hi Doug, we are eager to try the FSL randomise program on a FS data set we have. However, we have one (stupid, maybe) question: is the file design.con something that we make manually, or is it generated by some of the previous processes?
If we are going to make it ourselves, how should it be? In our GLM, we have two classes (males, females) and two variables (memory score, hippocampal volume), and we want to assess the relationship between the memory score and thickness when gender and hippocampal volume is regressed out), e.g. DOSS: 0 0 1 0 Thanks, - Anders > > FYI, FSL has a nice site documenting the randomise program :) > > http://www.fmrib.ox.ac.uk/fsl/randomise/index.html > > > Doug Greve wrote: > >> >> mris_glm does not correct for multiple comparisons itself.
