Dear Donald and all,

I have two PPI questions:

1- if I have a PM modulation (e.g. linear changes) and done +1 on the
subjects levels and then did group analysis using +1 or -1 ? is this
correct (i.e. do I have to return to the subjects level again and do the
contrast -1 in order to perform one sample t tests group analysis ?

Now the PPI related question here is that what does it mean a negative
first order linear PPI analysis between ROI (A (seed)) and ROI (B) ?

2- The second question is related to the group analysis. If I have two
groups patients (A) and healthy (B), when performing two sample t tests to
investigate PPI (A) > PPI (B) I do not get any significant even at very low
threshdol. Is it always difficult to get differences between group and this
need very high number of samples ?

Thanks
