I was wondering what the interpretations of the following ANOVA setups would be:
SETUP A:
-a levels --> 8 one for each timepoint that you estimated in the deconvolution
-b levels --> 2 one for each task
-c levels --> 10 one for each subject
fixed, fixed, and random effects for the levels, respectively
SETUP B:
-a levels --> 8 one for each timepoint that you estimated in the deconvolution
-b levels --> 2 one for each task
fixed and fixed effects for the levels, respectively
The a level factor is setup to determine the brain voxels that have significant signal modulation.
The b level factor is setup to look at task differences
Thus, the a level factor alone is relevant and the interaction is relevant because it would identify the voxels where the tasks are different over time.
The question I have is is there any advantage or disadvantage to either setup. It seems that SETUP A might be better because it takes subject differences into account. Any input would be appreciated.

Also. 3dANOVA4 seems like it would be very beneficial to projects that look at group differences.
