Enum: CoordinateRole

What a set of reported coordinates is, by what it is to the study and not by where the paper prints it. A coordinate that appears in a figure takes the role of what it is: peaks the study found are results even when a figure shows them. The role is judged for the coordinate-based meta-analysis these coordinates feed. When a set could be a result or another role, it is a result: a result missed costs the meta-analysis more than a non-result kept. Open vocabulary: write the source's own wording when nothing here fits.

  The role is judged for the coordinate-based meta-analysis these coordinates feed.
  When a set could be a `result` or another role, it is a `result`: a result missed
  costs the meta-analysis more than a non-result kept. Open vocabulary: write the

    description: 'A finding of this study: the peaks, clusters, local maxima or centres
      of gravity of a tested effect, whether listed in a table or shown in a figure
      (the "patients > controls" and "adults > children" peaks drawn on a brain).
      A coordinate reported with its statistics is a result even when the paper then
      uses it as a region of interest or seed, and so is a peak from the authors''
      own earlier study or dataset given with its statistics. A region of interest
      or seed whose coordinates are reported together with the statistics of the effect
      measured in it is a result, whether this study defined it or took it from another
      source, because the ROI analysis is the finding: an ROI from Supekar et al.
      (2013) reported with a connectivity correlation, functional ROIs at Neurosynth
      meta-analysis peaks reported with percent signal change and ICC, a vmPFC 8 mm
      sphere centred at -6, 50, 1 that "shows increased coupling ... p < 0.001". A
      set that mixes this study''s peaks with a cited peak is a result. The slice
      and crosshair positions of a figure are results, even when no peak or statistic
      is stated at them, unless the paper attributes them to another study: crosshairs
      marking another paper''s coordinate are a `reference`. In MEG or EEG, the peak
      of a tested effect in source space is a result; fNIRS channels reported with
      statistics for a significant effect are results. `result_kind` says what kind
      of analysis produced it.'

  anchor:
    text: anchor
    description: 'A location that defines an analysis rather than resulting from one:
      a region of interest, a connectivity seed, a stimulation target such as an rTMS
      site, a network node. `anchor_kind` says which. An ROI, seed or sphere given
      only as a definition, with no statistics reported with its coordinates, is an
      anchor, including one placed at a cited location or at a peak ("a 6 mm sphere
      centred on the peak"). The same coordinates reported with the statistics of
      the effect measured there are a `result`.'

    text: localization
    description: 'Where a sensor, electrode, fiducial, intracranial contact, dipole
      or anatomical landmark is. Metadata about a measurement, not a finding. MEG
      and EEG dipole or source fits are localizations, including fits made per subject:
      an EEG meta-analysis could count them as results, which is why the modality
      stays recorded, but this role is judged for a coordinate-based meta-analysis.
      The peak of a tested effect in source space is a `result`.'

      form area from Cohen et al. A peak from the authors'' own earlier study or dataset
      is a reference when it is given without statistics and a `result` when it is
      given with them. A cited location used to place a region of interest is not
      a reference: it is an `anchor` when only the definition is given, and a `result`
      when the ROI is reported with the statistics of the effect measured in it.'

      positions, orientation vectors) are not coordinates at all and are left out
      of the parse, not given this role.'
