  1. Bayesian Model Reduction for Group Studies Peter Zeidman

  2. Background

  3. Questions • What are the commonalities in effective connectivity across subjects within a group? • What are the differences in effective connectivity between groups? • Which combination of connections best predicts a group difference (or covariate)? • Which combination of group differences (or covariates) are most predictive of the connectivity?

  4. Inference over models Random effects Bayesian Model Selection (RFX BMS) SPM estimates a hierarchical model with variables: Outputs: Expected probability of model 2 Exceedance probability of model 2 Stephan et al. 2009, NeuroImage
