External Email - Use Caution Dear Douglas,
Thank you for your guidance. I am following-up on your response with regards to setting up DODS matrix to test interaction between two continous covariates. If I understand your recommendation correctly (please correct me if I am wrong), I am averegaing slopes for the new interaction covairate (age*weight), while regressing out slope estimates for age and weight. I am curious to know why regressing out the two original covariates is recommended. Thanks for your time! David _____________________________________________ You need to put in age, weight, AND age*weight. If you have two classes and use DODS, then the contrast would be 0 0 0 0 0 0 0.5 0.5 On 4/13/18 8:02 PM, David S Lee wrote: Hi Douglas, Thank you for your reply. To follow up, I am setting up GLM analysis with 1 categorical variable and 1 continuous variable (age X weight). Myfsgd looks like this: /GroupDescriptorFile 1/ /Title Cortical Thickness Interaction between Age and Weight/ /Class class1 plus blue/ /Class class2 circle green/ /Variable Demean Age X Demean Weight/ /Input001Class1500/ /Input002Class2433/ /.../ I want to test for an interaction between age and weight while controlling forgroup. Instead ofputting-inage and weight separately, I multiply them to test for interaction. Can you tell me if following contrast vector will correctly test for this? /0 0 0.5 0.5/ / / Thank you for your time, / / -- David S.
