Dear All:

In our study, we'd like to test the treatment effects in patient group, as compared with control group. Our hypothesis is the treatment will normalize Amygdala-prefrontal connectivity (more similar to control). Thus we have two groups (Patient and control) and two conditions (pre-treatment, post-treatment), and we are particularly interested in "spreading" (ordinal) interactions (i.e. pathways that patients improved over treatment, but controls remain the same), as opposed to "cross-over" (disordinal) interaction (for example, pathways that patients improved over treatment, but controls decreased over treatment). I wonder if CONN is able to do this type of flexible ANOVA test? and How? Many thanks

Joyce
