- Reposted by HeinLabSetting up an fMRI model and getting hit with collinearity errors? Been there! 😢 Try removing regressors? Orthogonal regressors? Other tricks to resolve collinearity errors? Guess what—those fixes might make things worse. We explore why and propose recommendations. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
