Hello I have carried out an ANCOVA in SPM2 in 2 groups and identified several clusters where GM is increased in gr1 compared to gr2. I would now like to investigate whether verbal fluency scores are correlated with GM in those areas where GM in gr1 is decreased. Is it possible to run a regression analysis only in the areas of GM difference. I thought this was analogous to masking - but in results I am only given the chioce of masking with other contrasts, in this case the results of the correlation not the ANCOVA. Any suggestion would be much appreciated.
