field name ofcfg.

default value

input

description

design

 

integer number

matrix containing a row with unit of observation (subject) number and a row with independent variable representing the order of the data input. example for five subjects two conditions:

1234512345

1111122222

uvar

 

integer number

row in cfg.design which contains the number of the unit of observation (e.g. subject)

(in the example: 1)

ivar

 

integer number

row in cfg.design which contains the independent variable (in the example: 2)

permstatstype

'indepsamplesT'

string

'mean' - use the distribution of the mean differences; 'depsamplesT' (for dependent samples) or 'indepsamplesT' (for independent samples) - use the distribution of the t-values.

numpermutation

190100

integer number

number of permutations in the permutation test

tail

2

integer number

1 or 2 tailed test of significance in the permutation test

alpha

.05

number

correctm

'FDR'

string

correction method used for correction of the multiple comparison problem - False discovery rate 'FDR' or Bonferroni correction 'BONF'

fileidout

 

string

the first part of the output filename
