External Email - Use Caution Hi experts,
I am running following command: mri_glmfit.bin --y SB_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2/lh.SUI_vol.8.mgh --fsgd PAI_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2.fsgd dods --C Corr-PAI-SUI_ONLY_DEP.mtx --surf fsaverage lh --cortex --glmdir SB_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2/lh.SUI_vol8.glmdir Both FSGD and Contrast files are also attached. After I run above command, I get following error (highlighted in red): mri_glmfit --y SB_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2/lh.SUI_vol.8.mgh --fsgd PAI_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2.fsgd dods --C Corr-PAI-SUI_ONLY_DEP.mtx --surf fsaverage lh --cortex --glmdir SB_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2/lh.SUI_vol8.glmdir gdfRead(): reading PAI_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2.fsgd INFO: demeaning continuous variables Continuous Variable Means (all subjects) 0 SUI 52.4444 2.11403 1 Age 32.1111 7.23332 2 DEP 55.1111 7.83786 Class Means of each Continuous Variable 1 Male 52.0000 32.0000 54.0000 2 Female 52.6667 32.1667 55.6667 INFO: gd2mtx_method is dods Reading source surface /data/emot/Freesurfer/FreeSurferSegmentation/SB_Behavioral/fsaverage/surf/lh.white Number of vertices 163842 Number of faces 327680 Total area 65416.984375 AvgVtxArea 0.399269 AvgVtxDist 0.721953 StdVtxDist 0.195470 $Id: mri_glmfit.c,v 1.241.2.4 2016/12/08 22:02:40 zkaufman Exp $ cwd /data/emot/Freesurfer/FreeSurferSegmentation/SB_Behavioral cmdline mri_glmfit.bin --y SB_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2/lh.SUI_vol.8.mgh --fsgd PAI_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2.fsgd dods --C Corr-PAI-SUI_ONLY_DEP.mtx --surf fsaverage lh --cortex --glmdir SB_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2/lh.SUI_vol8.glmdir sysname Linux hostname hyperion machine x86_64 user scanlab FixVertexAreaFlag = 1 UseMaskWithSmoothing 1 OneSampleGroupMean 0 y /data/emot/Freesurfer/FreeSurferSegmentation/SB_Behavioral/SB_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2/lh.SUI_vol.8.mgh logyflag 0 usedti 0 FSGD PAI_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2.fsgd labelmask /data/emot/Freesurfer/FreeSurferSegmentation/SB_Behavioral/fsaverage/label/lh.cortex.label maskinv 0 glmdir SB_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2/lh.SUI_vol8.glmdir IllCondOK 0 ReScaleX 1 DoFFx 0 Creating output directory SB_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2/lh.SUI_vol8.glmdir Loading y from /data/emot/Freesurfer/FreeSurferSegmentation/SB_Behavioral/SB_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2/lh.SUI_vol.8.mgh ... done reading.

If you seek help with this problem, make sure to send: 1. Your command line: mri_glmfit.bin --y SB_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2/lh.SUI_vol.8.mgh --fsgd PAI_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2.fsgd dods --C Corr-PAI-SUI_ONLY_DEP.mtx --surf fsaverage lh --cortex --glmdir SB_SUI_ONLY_MILD_DEP2/lh.SUI_vol8.glmdir 2. The FSGD file (if using one) 3. And the design matrix above Attempting to diagnose further SumSq: Min=1.034183 (col 7), Max=2.816108 (col 8) ... could not determine the cause of the problem Both fsgd and contrast files are created in LINUX, and I also normalized my data using DeMeanFlag 1 ReScaleFlag 1 as suggested here: https://www.mail-archive.com/freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/msg49123.html Could you please help in resolving this issue? Thanks ! Sahil
