Here are corrections to errors that have escaped attention in papers that I have participated.
Permutation inference for the general linear model.
Winkler AM, Ridgway GR, Webster MA, Smith SM, Nichols TE.
Neuroimage. 2014 May 15;92:381-97.
- In 2016, after the paper was published, it came to our attention that the orthogonalisation of
with respect to
before permutation had in fact been proposed in the cited reference of Dekker et al (2007), and also in an earlier working paper by the same authors. We deeply regret that we missed this contribution, in which case the Smith method would have been called Dekker method. We hope to further emphasise this naming issue in a future publication.

but instead it should be:

- The the Pearson’s correlation coefficient (often known as r) and the coefficient of determination (R2) are not pivotal statistics (page 382).
Measuring and comparing brain cortical surface area and other areal quantities. Winkler AM, Sabuncu MR, Yeo BT, Fischl B, Greve DN, Kochunov P, Nichols TE, Blangero J, Glahn DC.
Neuroimage. 2012 Mar 15;61(4):1428-43.
- In page 1434, 2nd column, footnote 8, the abbreviation “HWMH” should be “HWHM”, that is, half-width at half maximum.
Cortical thickness or grey matter volume? The importance of selecting the phenotype for imaging genetics studies.
Winkler AM, Kochunov P, Blangero J, Almasy L, Zilles K, Fox PT, Duggirala R, Glahn DC.
Neuroimage. 2010 Nov 15;53(3):1135-46.
- In page 1142, 2nd column, where it reads:
Where cortical thickness and surface area mostly […]
it should instead be:
Were cortical thickness and surface area mostly […]
that is, the adverb “where” should have been a verb in the subjunctive, “were”.
