hi all ~

firstly, thanks for adding the 'Create Batch File' in the GUI analysis window - it's very helpful for template create for batch processing.

secondly, i have a task - that i am wondering how to  best/most efficiently accomplish. let me know what the best tools within the PLS datamats/gui framework i can use to do the following:

- i have a group analysis distinguishing some conditions, producing ROIs that distinguish those conditions
- i can extract information about those ROIs (generate a cluster report etc..)
- now i want to extract the activity values for these ROIs but from the datamats created WITHIN subjects, not from the group datamat

will the cluster report generated from the group analysis be sufficient for an extracting within subjects if the data dimensions are the same? or is there a different way within PLS tools to do this?

thanks very much
agatha

...cluster report does work ...but takes a long time (if have lots of voxels/peaks & events)... so i am defaulting to using text files of just a few peaks for the extraction...

First reply the message you posted last time: The cluster report generated from a group analysis is different from the one within a subject. If you are talking about Multiple Voxel Extraction, the voxel intensities that you extracted from the result of group analysis can be used for the seed analysis within a subject. This is because you have *voxeldata.txt as well as *grp?_subj?_voxeldata.txt when you do Multiple Voxel Extraction. For *voxeldata.txt, it is already in the order of "subject-in-condition-in-group". For *grp?_subj?_voxeldata.txt, it is just 1 subject with several conditions, so be careful with the order of rows.

For your latest post: The time for a cluster report depending on the size of the clusters. So when you increase your threshold, it will be faster with less clusters.
