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:

https://discuss.afni.nimh.nih.gov

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

Yes, you can add an option

-gltCode 'gender : 0.5*M +0.5*F'

to obtain the directionality of the population-level effect.

The issue is not really about the unbalanced situation between the two genders, but about the meager number of samples in each gender. You may consider more specific inferences such as

-gltCode 'gender : 0.5*M +0.5*F age :'
-gltCode 'gender : 1*M -1*F age :'
-gltCode 'gender : 1*M age :'
-gltCode 'gender : 1*F age :'

> Finally, if I want to convert the F stat into z values the command would be?

Don't do the F-to-Z conversion. Instead, rely on those post hoc inferences listed above.
