Hi,
yes, I guess what I am trying to do is figure out a way to identify brain regions that have a meaningful connection between my seed region (amygdala). When I run 3dttest++, nearly all voxels are significant at very high p-value thresholds. This makes sense, given that a high high t value only indicates r is with some significance level different from 0, so i guess nearly all my voxels are significantly different than zero. However, I want to answer the question- what regions are most connected to the amygdala, out of all of these regions.
So two ways I have thought about how to do this (I could be totally wrong here, so please feel free to offer other suggestions:
1) conduct partial correlations to account for the relationship between my seed region and the other voxels (what is the relationship between my seed region and that voxels when I take into account the fact that the voxel right next to it is also connected)
2) take the top 10% of the correlations obtained from the group map.
Is it possible to do either of these in AFNI or do you have another suggestion?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Best,
Maria
