Hello SPMers,

In my first level design I have two conditions (A, B) and one regressor 
(a string of values, C), and realignment parameters (6) as multiple 
regressors.

My first level contrast was [1 -1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0].

Does this contrast mean that:
a) the results are derived from  condition A > condition B, "AND" 
regressor C
or
b) the results are derived from  condition A > condition B,  "OR" 
regressor C?

In other words, the SPMs results show
~ high activation where both A>B AND C have high values or where A>B OR 
C have high values?
~  do I still get results where A > B and not affected by C, from the 
contrast [1 -1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0]?

Comments are welcomed

Thank you
