RE: Questions about ANOVA models
Hi Alfonso,
I owe you a long overdue debt of gratitude. Your explanations are really helpful. Thank you!
Furthermore, I would like to better understand the 'conjunction of simple main group effects'. Is it possible to test 'differences between patients and control during pre- and post-medication respectively' with one manova design? Some preference to manova design is evident in RSfMRI literature. Does it make any sense to perform tests, e.g., 1. differences between patients and control during pre-medication by selecting "Patients-Pre" "Patients-Post" "Controls" "Subject1" "Subject2" ... "Subject10" and enter contrast [-1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0]; 2. differences between patients and control during post-medication by selecting "Patients-Pre" "Patients-Post" "Controls" "Subject1" "Subject2" ... "Subject10" and enter contrast [0 -1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0]? If yes, what advantages and disadvantages of this design? After an attempt, I found different results between the aforementioned test 1&2 and those simple group effects by [1 -1].
I hope that I make myself clear. Thank you very much in advance as always.
Best regards,
Yong

Simple main group effects (e.g. comparing the patients and control groups connectivity measures after medication)
Select "Patients-Post" and "Controls" and enter contrast [1 -1]
Simple main group effects (e.g. comparing the patients and control groups connectivity measures before medication)
Select "Patients-Pre" and "Controls" and enter contrast [1 -1]
OR conjunction of simple main group effects (differences between patients and control during either pre- or post-medication)
Select "Patients-Pre" "Patients-Post" "Controls" "Subject1" "Subject2" ... "Subject10" and enter contrast [-1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0; 0 -1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0]
Note that the first test above (simple main medication effects) will be effectively equivalent to a paired t-test comparing pre- and post-medication connectivity measures, the next two tests will each be effectively equivalent to a two-sample t-test comparing patients vs. controls connectivity measures, and the last test will be equivalent to a manova of the between-group differences pre- and post- medication.
