Hi Ruy,
From what I recall, your points are correct, that _AM*
is required for dmBLOCK, and that those cannot go
into the baseline model. The reason for the latter I
am not sure of, except that it is surely because of
where in the code the AM regressors are generated.
But to flip it around, why do you really care to put
them in the baseline mode? The only effects of
that would be:
1. the Full_Fstat would include them (not the partials)
2. the default would be to give output volumes with
those betas and stats
It seems likely that you do not care about 1, and
it seems likely that you might actually prefer 2,
i.e. seeing the results.
So would you please clarify why you want them
in the baseline model?
Thanks,
