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.

Hi Gang thanks for answering me, I feel very confused with the design of my 3dMVM script, would you mind to help me a bit?
I want to see the relationship between the CBF_maps (voxel wise, .nii file per subject) with a quantitative clinical measure (loneliness, which is one single number per subject). I need to control for age, gender, depression scores and gray matter concentration (the gray matter concentration is a voxel wise covariate).

Dependent variable: voxel wise CBF
Independent variable: Loneliness (clinical measure)
Covariates: age, gender, depression and voxel wise gray matter concentration.

I have done this part of the script but I feel lost with the other part

3dMVM -prefix 3dMVM_test -jobs 4 \
-bsVars 'loneliness' \
-mask GM2mm_WFU_Mask.nii.gz \
-qVars "age,gender,hamd" \
-vVars 'gmc' \


I also create the txt file of the data and it looks something like this:

Subj age gender hamd hama gmc loneliness group InputFile
172_120916 68 1 21 9 c1w172_120916.nii 37 1 ASL_CBF_2MNI_6mm_172_120916.nii
222_103015 77 -1 19 13 c1w222_103015.nii 36 1 ASL_CBF_2MNI_6mm_222_103015.nii
225_010416 65 1 2 1 c1w225_010416.nii 23 1 ASL_CBF_2MNI_6mm_225_010416nii

Would you mind to help me with some guidance to build the script?

Thank you
