Hi  Douglas,

If to set up the FSGD as below, is my design matrix for case and control comparison as "1 -1 1 -1 1 -1 1 -1 0 0"  ?

    I would advice setting up the FSGD files with 8 classes based on
    your 3 discrete, 2-level variables, eg, MaleControlWhite then use
    two continuous variables Age and eTIV.
    You should definitely normalize the eTIV (and probably age too)

    Hi Douglas,

    Just to be clear, should I recode discrete variables as numeric
    as sample1) or change discrete variables into strings 2) or even
    change the comparison groups into strings too 3)?
    1)

        Did you read the error message? It says:

        You have listed Gender and Race as strings, they have to be
        numbers (eg, 1, 2)
        You probably want to have these be discrete variables instead
        of continuous

            Hi Freesurfer experts,

            Here, I want to design a simple group comparison (two

            covariates (two continuous and two categoricals).
            However, the GLM model cannot recognize my discrete
