The script "z_comparison.m" contains an incorrect formula.
D = R1_Z.*sqrt(N1-3) - R2_Z.*sqrt(N2-3);
Fisher's formula for comparing z values is:
D = (R1_Z - R2_Z) / sqrt(1/
-- Fisher in 1921, On the probable error of a coefficient of correlation deduced from a small sample, Metron, 1, 3-32.

Thanks for the report, this is part of a Matlab library that hasn't been officially released, and is not part of the ModelGUI project. The formula has been fixed and should soon replace the link currently located on the ModelGUI Wiki site. Once it is, this bug will be changed to "fix released".
