So it is only one volume? This won't work with mri_glmfit. glmfit needs to have a value for each subject so that it can compute the variance across subjects (needed to infer whether a difference from 0 is significant). I don't know of any software that will do it.

Hi Doug,

The output of the analysis is a volume with performance values in each voxel. the performance ranges between 0 to 1 and I want to see if across subjects there is any region with above chance performance (Chance is 0.5).

    Hi Maryam, I must confess ignorance on search-light analysis. Can
     you give me more background on what it is, the output data, and
    what you want mri_glmfit to tell you?

        Hi Dough,

         I have run a searchlight analysis on 10 subjects and want to
        run a random effects analysis with mri_glmfit across subject.
        I have the results of each subject projected on the fsaverage
        surface. But I have no idea how to make it to
        1) compare the values in each voxel with 0.5 instead of 0
        2) how to make it ignore the fact that I dont have variance
        for each subject and only have a single performance value
        (support vector machine performance) for each voxel (it looks
        like the mri_glmfit needs a ces.var.nii)

        Any idea how I can do this? Sorry if this is a rookie
        question. I am totally new to searchlight and random effects
        analysis in fsfast.

        Thanks,
        Maryam
