A question about the data sequence in ANOCOVA(repeated measures)

Submitted by wisepig119 on

I have 2 times R-fMRI data which are repeated measures. When I'm going to do statistics using ANOCOVA, but I confuse about which group I should put in first: is the group at baseline or  the follow-up?  What is the mean of  positive or minus numbers in the results? Thank you!

Thank you for your reply. And how could I know which group are higher than others. If I have more than 3 groups, Could the dpabi do the post hoc analysis further after ANCOVA? I would appreciate if you could reply. Best, Hong-ru
