Dear FS team,
   I would like to make an analysis between a Patients Group and a  
Control Group. This study is focused on identifying if there are  
differences in volume between both groups.  I want to regress out the  
effects of gender, age and IQ.

My designed matrix has the following structure:
GroupDescriptorFile1
Class PatientMale
Class PatientFemale
Class ControlMale
Class ControlFemale
Variables                                       Age     IQ
Input  subject1         PatientMale             25      110
Input subject2          ControlMale             30      90

I was thinking about a Contrast Matrix like this:
0.5     0.5     -0.5    -0.5    0       0       0       0       0       0       
0       0
However, looking for some information I discovered that it only  
compares volume of two groups at the naissance because it is only  
comparing intercepts. Therefore, how I could make a comparison between  
volumes of two groups in general?
Thank you,
Laura
