Unbalanced number of repeats across individuals #229

Hi,

I have a question regarding performing test for individuals with unequal number of repeats. As I understood I need to perform random effects analysis for this kind of data but the question is that does SPM support this kind of analysis?

Thanks in advance Mina

Sorry for the delay!

It depends what you mean by "repeats". If you mean "repeated across multiple conditions" then this may be a repeated-measures design in which case spm1d may indeed support it. If you mean "repeated within a single condition" then it is usually sufficient to simply calculate within-condition means for each subject.
