We investigated a new method to observe genotypic
effects on brain activation using 104 people including
patients with schizophrenia and controls with genotypes
of NRG1-P3. After conventional SPM of fMRI with verbal
working memory, group average contrast estimate volumes
of 4 subject groups (schizophrenia/control by C-allele/TT-genotype)
provided 4-value sets for the whole brain coordinates,
and the 4-value sets underwent k-means clustering that
yielded cluster means (10 divisions). These cluster
means were then used as true contrast definition
values in SPM. We successfully obtained cluster-specific
SPMs that helped observations of influences by age and
task accuracy in a data-driven manner.
