I am wondering whether one can use neuroCombat to deconfound functional connectivity matrices containing Pearson correlation values. The matrices are calculated from different sites and confounded, I assume doing a Fisher z-transformation for making the correlations linear and afterwards deconfounding using neuroCombat is a valid approach. What do you think?
Many thanks for the great tool and the response in advance!
