Reduces correlation with the group term and so improves efficiency.

Dear Doug,
I need also to correct for Age and Years of Education by using them as
nuisance covariate. Would you please explain:
Why the covariates should be demeaned?
Is subtracting the mean from each individual the only way of demeaning?
How Qdec regress out the effect of the covariates , linear o
If there is no interaction, then either DODS or DOSS is appropriate.
DOSS will be more powerful and a little more interpretable. If there is
an interaction then DODS must be used, and the interpretation of the
difference between groups becomes more problematic. Eg, if age is the
covariate, and
Hey All,
I am sorry to jump into this discussion. I know how to check the slope
difference between groups. I want to ask help from you to confirm that if
difference in thickness in some brain areas arising from (0 0 1 -1)
happens, it means that there is a group * age interaction, right?
Then, th
If you have two groups and a single covariate, when you run it with
mri_glmfit create a contrast with [0 0 1 -1]. In QDEC, it will be one of
the default contrasts (something like "do the two groups differ in slope?")

Thanks Doug and how can check if the slopes are different?

Use DODS to test whether the slopes differ between the three groups. If
they do not, then use DOSS.

HiAmirhossein, don't use the DOSS feature in QDEC because there is a bug such
that
it does not always do the right thing. Sorry, I sent out an email
about 8mo ago on this, but it is not easy to let people know about a bug
once the bug is out there. If you want to use DOSS, use mri_glmfit direc
