Dear Prof Smith,
Thanks for the quick reply.
I did read the design.mat and design.con file, but also explored
design.grp and design.fsf
By experimenting with values, I managed to guess that for design.mat :
/NumWaves == number of EVs
/NumPoints == number of rows
/PPheights = an array of the range of number for EV, i.e. [max(EV(n)-min(EV(n)]
For design.con,
/ContrastName{n} == name of contrast{n}
/NumContrasts == number of contrast
But cannot figure out how to generate
/RequiredEffects
for design.con.
I figure design.grp is the data for the column named Group in GLM's
GUI and that design.fsf is the description of setup of the GUI and
something more.
I have yet to figure out how to generate the orthogonalized contrast.
Any tips. All I need is pointers to the program file generating them
and I should be able to figure it out from there.
Thank you in advance and Best regards,
Cinly
