Hello,

I'm struggling to get my 3dLME to run. I keep getting stuck at the model test, with the suggestion that there's inappropriate coding in -model, -qVars, or -gltCode. I've combed through the message board and tried various things other people have had problems with but I can't seem to come to any resolution. Any insights as to what I may be doing wrong?

*I know the 3dLME command looks a little crazy with all the posthoc tests, but we're interested in the specific results of the various contrasts as they pertain to the 3 covariates (PCL_2wk, ETV_2wk, and PEDQ_2WK_TOTAL) and not just "controlling for their effects".

Thanks in advance!!
