Dear Douglas, My command lines were, e.g. right thickness and right white surface (using the same ad_hv.fsgd and group_diff.mtx files in the command lines):
ad_hv.fsgd GroupDescriptorFile 1 Title AD_HV_GroupAnalysis Class AD Class HV Input AD_003 AD Input AD_005 AD ... Input HV_AB HV Input HV_AE HV group_diff.mtx 1 -1 right thickness mris_preproc --fsgd ad_hv.fsgd --cache-in thickness.fwhm10.fsaverage --target fsaverage --hemi rh --out rh.ad_hv.thick.10.mgh mri_glmfit --y rh.ad_hv.thick.10.mgh --fsgd ad_hv.fsgd dods --C group_diff.mtx --surf fsaverage rh --cortex --glmdir rh.ad_hv.thick.glmdir mri_glmfit-sim --glmdir rh.ad_hv.thick.glmdir --cache 4 neg --cwp 0.05 --2spaces right white surface mris_preproc --fsgd ad_hv.fsgd --cache-in area.fwhm10.fsaverage --target fsaverage --hemi rh --out rh.ad_hv.area.10.mgh mri_glmfit --y rh.ad_hv.area.10.mgh --fsgd ad_hv.fsgd dods --C group_diff.mtx --surf fsaverage rh --cortex --glmdir rh.ad_hv.area.glmdir mri_glmfit-sim --glmdir rh.ad_hv.area.glmdir --cache 4 neg --cwp 0.05 --2spaces Their results were all the same.
