AFNI Message Board

Dear AFNI users-

We are very pleased to announce that the new AFNI Message Board framework is up! Please join us at:

Existing user accounts have been migrated, so returning users can login by requesting a password reset. New users can create accounts, as well, through a standard account creation process. Please note that these setup emails might initially go to spam folders (esp. for NIH users!), so please check those locations in the beginning.

The current Message Board discussion threads have been migrated to the new framework. The current Message Board will remain visible, but read-only, for a little while.

Sincerely, AFNI HQ

Colm,

Use RBA instead of BayesianGroupAna.py for region-based analysis since I've been maintaining and adding more functionalities into RBA.

> I've been playing with BayesianGroupAna.py and would like to perform the equivalent of a between group t-test. Is this possible?

Currently RBA allows for between-subject (categorical and quantitative) variables as predictors. I'll try to add the functionality of modeling within-subject variables soon.

Sure. Basically if you have a GLM under the conventional framework, you can use RBA. I'll try to expand its modeling capability to the case with repeated-measures variables.

Thanks for catching the mistakes there!
