请问regressor这个词应该怎么理解

Submitted by nutrition-li on

大家好!请问regressor这个词应该怎么理解啊?我最近在很多地方都看到这个词,请大家不吝赐教。
在SPM8的manual里第62页讲到1st level analysis的Timing parameters设置时,提到“Also, with long TRs you may want to shift the regressors so that they are aligned to a particular slice. This is e ected by changing the microtime resolution and onset.”

第63页的fig8.2也提到了这个词,图如下:

P63.Figure 8.2: Design matrix for fMRI data from two sessions. There are 24 experimental conditions for each session. The last two columns model the average activity in each session, giving a total of 50 regressors. There are 191 fMRI scans for each session. The overall design matrix therefore has 382 rows and 50 columns.

请问,regressor这个词该怎么理解?另外上面这幅图中的设计没有看明白,请指教。
谢谢!!

regressor即为做回归分析时的自变量,也称回归子,建议参考一下基本的统计教材。 这些图即为回归子的示意,进入回归分析。
