External Email - Use Caution Hello FreeSurfer Developers,
I'm attempting to compare cortical surface area among three groups while controlling for estimated total intracranial volume (eTIV), as described on the Surface Based Group Analysis tutorial ( https://secure-web.cisco.com/1A0QSPCwnovVVVsFNKDP8OXxiBFqZ78jELzRvCgQt7us3rKayy2caTMVKC0nI4ildx0WJqzN5lLz1i-T5FHTbnyaiJAYj3f4mSQ4YHgEnKgBthfsubdAmofQmb_wxbJARZK70-yJh-Q-zB-SO-qUOdB5mSbQ71p0R-muUphnBpsvIZSn12rCp8u9iFutHnHZiR2SHvMYZrtWgA2qG1HwIVF7eXEz_S43Y9x_BasmQivW7O0E14rKYKn2Hc6i1PPi-krEJ-p90KuI4uEnOqU2T3HEQaZ4yicZdxZVpeFkSkL2Taw7LCrmTuBUijdwzR0I8MhzyhVIWFnyo-WUBgBXiig/https%3A%2F%2Fsurfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu%2Ffswiki%2FFsTutorial%2FGroupAnalysisV6.0 I ran the following command: mri_glmfit --y three_group_comparison.area.lh.10.mgh --fsgd three_group_comparison.area.fsgd dods --C three_group_comparison.area.mtx --surf fsaverage lh --cortex --glmdir three_group_comparison.area.lh.glmdir --eres-save Then I got the following error: gdfRead(): reading three_group_comparison.area.fsgd INFO: DeMeanFlag keyword not found, DeMeaning will NOT be done.

I've searched the mail archives and similar errors have been reported in qdec, but I could not find any specific solution for this problem. Do you have any suggestions to solve this problem? Thank you in advance, Hyunwoo Jeong
