I don't understand. What per hemisphere variable?

Thanks for your answer. A follow up question:
How should I then specify the variable's values per hemisphere
while making the FSGD file if I want to add covariates when
running mri_glmfit?

Thanks in advance.

If you are trying to determine whether the hemispheres are different,
then you need to do the subtraction between the hemis (ie, the
--paired-diff). If you want to look at the hemispheres separately, then
don't combine them in a single file
