RE: data mean adjustment
I would not be concerned about this happening. The PPI terms are mean-centered as part of the code. The higher the amplitude of the PPI regressors or the more events, the more the DC shift will be in the data. The DC term is offset by the constant term in the model.

Hiya,

Here is a sample SPM.mat for one subject and the commands:

xlvl = {'conCinsTrem0' 'conCinsTrem1' 'conCinsDrem0' 'conCinsDrem1' 'conIinsTrem0' 'conIinsTrem1' 'conIinsDrem0' 'conIinsDrem1'};

for i=1:length(xlvl)
xlvlPPI{i} = sprintf('PPI_%s',xlvl{i});
end

load('SPM.mat');

for c=1:length(xlvl)
   cinds = find(~cellfun(@isempty, regexp(SPM.xX.name,sprintf(' %s',xlvl{c})))); % need to add space or will also match PPI_
   pinds = find(~cellfun(@isempty, regexp(SPM.xX.name,xlvlPPI{c})));
   for i=1:length(cinds)
      figure(s*100+c*10+i)
      plot(SPM.xX.X(1:178,cinds(i)))
      hold on
      plot(SPM.xX.X(1:178,pinds(i)),'r')
      title(['sub' subj '\color{blue}' SPM.xX.name(cinds(i)) ' - ' '\color{red}' SPM.xX.name(pinds(i))])
   end
end

Thank you, Donald!!
