thank you. and one other question; rather than putting years as the time variable, can i do time 1 (for baseline) and 2 (for follow-up), and jsut control for time between scans instead? On Fri, Jun 13, 2014 at 5:42 PM, Martin Reuter wrote: > Hi Anna, whenever it says qdec-long the table is in q

Hi Anna I am not a statistician, but I would not control for duration separately, but rather use the time variable for that.  It does not need to be in years (can be days out months). Measures closer in time are more correlated than measures further apart. Lme makes use of that information throug

Hi Dorian if you want to avoid overlap you might need to cobble together a procedure yourself - probably converting the annots to labels then removing the overlap and recombining into an annot. It wouldn't be that hard to do in matlab. For you second question you are probably best off drawin

Hi Anna, the matlab tools don't know. They only look at the other co-variates that you might want to include into your study (the fsid-base for grouping, the time variable and others from the table). The stack of thickness maps needs to be in the same order as the rows in the qdec table. That
