Results of running AFNI’s left-right flip check on several publicly available macaque datasets using afni_proc.py. Datasets were randomly assigned to a “flipped” group (anatomical volume left-right flipped before analysis) or to an “unflipped” group (no changes performed). While the check correctly categorized datasets in most cases (17 out of 19), the high degree of left-right symmetry in macaques made cost function discrimination difficult for several outputs. *Skullstripping and/or EPI-anatomical alignment failed in four additional “flipped” and three additional “unflipped” cases (7 out of a total 26 downloaded), and so were not included in this table. **In four “flipped” and three “unflipped” cases included in the table (7 out of a total 19 successfully analyzed), the final cost function values were extremely close, making them difficult to differentiate in practice.
