Hello,

I am attempting to set up a code to utilize 3dMVM and I have a few questions below regarding this set up. I would like to complete a Group (2) x Phase (2) x Reinforcement (2) x Subjects (38) ANOVA, and I have an unequal number of participants within each group. Before, I tried to use GroupAna, but realized I could not run this program as I have too many factors and had an unbalanced design.

Questions:
(1) Do the input files need to include the participant's IDs? I got these input files by using 3dcalc to separate the resulting stats file from 3dDeconvolve into the separate conditions
(2) I am not too sure what the main difference between using the glf and glt is, and I have noticed that some of the examples on the website do not include the "glf". I have indicated the different interactions and main effects I am interested in using the glt.
(3) Does the general set up of the code looks correct (pasted below)? I have not listed all my participants yet. I have used the examples in the AFNI webpage and other threads from the message board to guide my set up.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Best,
Tamara
