Dear SPMers,

I have a question about the difference using the 2 sample t test, paired
sample t test, and flexible factorial design. I have two contrast images
from each subject, con1.img, and con2.img. My ultimate goal is to compare
the two contrast images, i.e. con1-con2 and con2-con1. I tried all of the
three tests, but I got different results, the t tests did not give me
significant activations, while the flexible factorial design gave me some
activations. I am wondering what are the fundamental differences among the
three methods and what is the best approach among the three.

Thank you so much

Tiffany
