Hi,

I did not see this documented anywhere so I figured it would be best to
double check.

Any group analysis relies on that the individual functional and structural
data have first been aligned, and there is therefore a register.dat file
in the individual subject's directory. This is usually saved at
$STUDY_DIR/$SESSION_DIR/bold/register.dat

Now, when I run a group analysis, the functional (or structural) space of
each individual subject is re-mapped onto the structural space of the
target brain. This process must have access to the correct
subject-specific register.dat files for each individual subject.

In the case of a spherical surface group analysis, I would do this
re-mapping by func2sph-sess that I run inside the $STUDY_DIR. The command
would have the format

func2sph-sess -analysis <analysisname> -sf sessid -df sesspar -trgsubject
fsaverage -projfrac 0.3

where the contents of the "sessid" file would list all my $SESSION_DIRs
(i.e., different subjects).

Question:

Where does func2sph-sess look for the individual level register.dat files?
I assume it will automatically find them at
$STUDY_DIR/$SESSION_DIR/bold/register.dat

Thanks,

Tommi
