Rescaling by the voxel mean will mess up the intensity normalization.
Try making your analysis (mkanalysis-sess) with -no-inorm and see if the
results are more consistent. They will not be exact because the raw
mean time course is not used to create the cespct. Rather it is the
regression coefficient of the mean offset regressor. They should be
pretty close though.

Hi all,
I ran an analysis on data after dividing each voxel mean across the
run, and then multiplying by 100. (My intuition was that the percent
signal change should be more consistent across varying SNR that the
non-normalized betas).
I had naively expected ces.nii and cespct.nii to be equivalent in this
case, but in fact, cespct.nii is steeply larger and only imperfectly
correlated with ces.nii. What am I missing?
