Hi Branislava, If the VOI is not generated with the option <adjust for main effect>, will that make a big impact on later analysis? Thanks!

When creating a Volume of Interest (VOI) using eigenvariate button, the spm will calculate the eigen variate of the time courses of voxels that survive a certain (by you defined) contrast. Kind Regards Branislava
