If you're studying thickness, I'm a fan of using mean cortical thickness as the covariate (since thickness is what you're studying). I've posted on this in the past.

I' m noting very different results on my data when I use mean thickness or ICV as nuisance factor than no factor. I'm confuse on this topic, could you advise the best way, please?
