[Freesurfer] Qdec Error: MatrixMultiply: ml is null!
Hi, I am trying to run a between group analysis in QDEC whilst controlling for intrancranial volume. The design has one dichotomous variable (group2, group2), one continuous (performance on behavioral task), and one nuisance variable (intracranial volume). each time I run it qec crashes with the following error: MatrixMultiply: ml null! What does this error mean and how can I fix it? What is odd is that this error does not seem to be consistently reproducible - after successfully running the analyses without controlling for ICV, I was then able to run it with ICV as a nuisance factor. Thank you!

Re: [Freesurfer] Qdec Error: MatrixMultiply: ml is null!
Hi Doug, I saw on a previous mailing earlier this week that someone has been having a similar error and that your advice was to demean the ICV. I apologise if this is a stupid question, but what does it mean to "demean"? And, how do i do that? Thanks in advance! Laura.

Re: [Freesurfer] Qdec Error: MatrixMultiply: ml is null!
Hi Nick and Doug, Thanks for the help, I'll give the demeaning a try. Re: the missing values - all my missing data points are denoted with NaN so that I can include those subjects on the measures that they do have, but exclude them on measures they don't have (I think this is the only way to load the data table if there are missing values, is that correct?) This seems to be working fine when I do not include ICV as a nuisance variable. Do you think that these non-number cells are causing the issue? (I have check the data table to make sure that there are no empty cells). Laura.
