Enum: TablePurpose

What a table is for. A coordinate table is not an analysis merely by having coordinates in it: a study's ROI definitions, its atlas parcels, its connectivity seeds and the peaks of its independent components are all locations rather than findings, and reported_effect is what says the rows ARE a finding. Open vocabulary: write the source's own wording when nothing here fits.

  reported_effect:
    text: reported_effect
    description: 'The rows ARE the foci of a tested effect, so this table is an analysis
      and not one of the kinds below. Derived rather than read: a table an `Analysis`
      names in `tables` reports that analysis''s result.

      Present because absence could not say it: an unmarked table is both one that
      reports results and one nobody decided about, and a reader shown only the non-analysis
      kinds has no way to say "it is an analysis".'
  region_definitions:
    text: region_definitions
    description: Regions of interest the study delimited, with the coordinates that
      locate them -- a sphere's centre, a mask's peak.
  atlas_or_parcellation:
    text: atlas_or_parcellation
    description: Entries of a published atlas or parcellation the study used.
  connectivity_seeds:
    text: connectivity_seeds
    description: The seed or node locations a connectivity analysis was run from.
  component_peaks:
    text: component_peaks
    description: Peak locations of the components of a latent decomposition -- an
      ICA component's spatial map. The decomposition is not itself a tested effect.
  prior_literature_coordinates:
    text: prior_literature_coordinates
    description: Coordinates cited from other papers, for comparison or to place an
      ROI.
  stimulus_or_task_list:
    text: stimulus_or_task_list
    description: The stimuli, conditions or trial structure of the paradigm.
  demographics:
    text: demographics
    description: Participant characteristics, whether or not group differences in
      them were tested.
  descriptive_statistics:
    text: descriptive_statistics
    description: Summary values with no inferential test -- means, percentages, dwell
      times.
