Dear all
I’m new to NBS and SPM, and I'm currently working on NBS correction
for a connectivity matrix. The experimental design involves three
within-subject conditions.
I calculated a 64 × 64 connectivity matrix for each condition.
The final data matrix is 64 × 64 × 93, corresponding to 3
conditions × 31 subjects.
Question 1 : Is my input below correct for ANOVA
(F-test)?
Question 2(Main) : How should I determine the primary threshold in
NBS, and which value is appropriate to report in my paper? In my
case, even after setting the threshold to 20, NBS still reports one
large significant network consisting of 1,136 edges out of a total
of 2,016. Since we used the Schaefer parcellation for ROI
definition, how should I choose the appropriate test statistic
threshold (F or t)?
Question 3: After performing the F-test, should I extract the
significant network (edges and nodes) by masking the data matrix
(non-significant data point to 0), and then conduct post-hoc
t-tests?
design matrix is : (which match the data matrix)
