Hi Doug,
it would be great if you could give me some further advise on the group
analysis of functional connectivity maps.
Specifically, I am trying to get PCC maps for certain seeds, and am not
planning any comparison between groups.
Following your previous advise, I am running isxconcat-sess with -m pcc to
get the PCC maps.
I would then run

mri_glmfit \
--surf averagesubject hemisphere \
--y pcc.nii \
--no-cortex \
--osgm \
--glmdir analysisname

*Could you please provide some more detail on what kind of analysis is
performed when I provide pcc.nii as an input for mri_glmfit? Is it a t-test
of the Fisher-transformed r-values against 0?
*Is the average r-value or z-value saved somewhere?
*Do you take the autocorrelation into account (as in Vincent JL et al.,
2007. Intrinsic functional architecture in the anaesthetized monkey brain.
Nature. 447:83-86)?
I'd also be happy to look this up but I'd need to know where I can find
this information.

Thanks, Caspar
