External Email - Use Caution        

Do you have a Freesurfer page I can read up on those hybrid ways just to see 
whether that could be an option?

Also, although its a binary, you would recommend against have sex be a 
continuous measurement like age, due to the design of how the contrasts are 
determined? I.e continuous measurements aren't treated like integers

Subject: [External] Re: [Freesurfer] classes for GLM analysis

It is probably not going to work very well if you have some classes that only 
have one member. You can eliminate members of classes that only have a few 
members. If you really need to have those cases, there are hybrid ways to 
analyze the data (but you can't use an FSGD at that point)

Hi all,

I am doing an analysis and generating the FSGD. I understand sex and race are 
classes in this context, but something I was also hoping to regress out is the 
effects of scanner/sequences. We have a large participant size, so we have 
around 10+ scanner/sequences, which makes for a large amount of classes 
combinations, with some having just 1 (if not zero) fitting into a class.

Would you proceed with this nonetheless? If not, should scanner/sequence be 
something that we consider? Should we find some other way to adjust site (I 
don't think we can z-score...). Or can we consider site/scanner as a continuous 
variable
