Hi Courtney, If the t/F stats that you are getting for a single vertex in Qdec do not match what you get in SPSS when analyzing the same input data (up to a trivial precision difference), then the odds are that whatever model you are using in SPSS is not that same as that implemented in Qdec. I'd suggest you check the design matrix (Xg.dat) and associated .mat files for specific contrasts used in Qdec, and use those to figure out if you have the same model in SPSS. If you are not very familiar with how SPSS constructs models (and I'm not) then you might need to get someone involved that knows exactly how SPSS is modeling your data based on your selections.
