Hi. The input to second-level analysis (i.e., the "data") is the
first-level copes. These, when multiplied by 100 * the height of the
first-level regressors and divided by the first-level intensity baseline,
tell you the % change at first level. So, taking that into account, the
second-level fitted data ("y-axis") is interpretable I hope!
Cheers, Steve.
