Dear all,

thank you very much for your help - just as you suggested, the mask was incorrect (completely black). I checked my settings and I have Threshold (none), Implicit mask (yes), Explicit mask (none). Individual subjects' con images look OK.

I think that the best solution would be to make an explicit mask, since I don't know what and why went wrong with the implicit mask - do you think it is a good solution?

Thank you again,

Jana

Matlab creates a mask to limit GLM analysis to in-brain voxels. This is calculated based on a intensity threshold, perhaps it is too stringent. Look at your Mask.img file in the glm output folder and make sure ~isempty(mask).

Cheers,
Michael

Hi Erica,

thank you for your reply! Actually, I am not using a mask. That's why I was so puzzled by this error message.

Best,

Jana

Are you using masking? I've gotten this error before when I created a binary mask incorrectly (the mask was just black, so of course there was no area for the program to analyse data within). Hope this helps!
