Hello,
Is it a legitimate path to initially do a whole brain analysis and identify peaks and then follow up these peaks using seed based PLS? Is this double dipping?
What is the difference between a network identified through whole brain and seed based analysis?
Regards
Andrew
thats a tough one to answer,Andrew. If the full-brain analysis is a task-PLS, then the questions that lead to seed PLS can be independent. What is the whole-brain analysis you are refering to?
The whole-brain analysis was a task-based PLS. The LV identified a couple of interesting peaks associated with two conditions within the task. The follow-up seed-based analysis of the peaks identified some group differences dependent on the condition. I'm just a little unsure of this approach.

seed based PLS is a different source of variance than task - so no worries
an example of this approach was recently published in JOCN:

Thank you, that is a big help

Is there a sentence or two (or a reference) I could use to satisfy the reviewers/readers that this approach is justified. Could you briefly explain the differences in variance?
Thanks for all your help.
