Re: [Freesurfer] Interpretation of pcc.mgh for negative contrasts

gamma and pcc should be the same sign. The relationship to the sign of beta depends on your contrast. If beta is negative and your contrast element is negative, then you will get a positive gamma and pcc. On 09/13/2018 02:15 PM, Nicola Toschi wrote: > External Email - Use Caution > Thank you Dou

External Email - Use Caution Thank you Doug, that was exactly the question... it may be a trivial one but I have been messing aroung with several effects size calculation for a while and just wanted to make sure. So negative contrast (-1), negative beta.mgh, positive (?) gamma.

not sure what your question is. The pcc should have the same sign as the contrast. On 09/13/2018 12:20 PM, Nicola Toschi wrote: > External Email - Use Caution > > Hi List, > > a dimple question about using partial correlation (pcc.mgh) as effect > size measure. I am running multivariate

External Email - Use Caution Hi List, a dimple question about using partial correlation (pcc.mgh) as effect size measure. I am running multivariate regression and setting positive and negative contrasts one variable at a time, e.g. a design matrix with columns like Intercept
