Dear FreeSurfer experts,
I am reading your work 'False positive rates in surface-based anatomical
analysis' and having several questions about multiple test correction in
mri_glmfit-sim:
1. The permutation is permuting the design matrix, but how to permute it in
a one-sample t-test? According to my understanding, all the subjects are
listed as one group in the design matrix.
2. What's the difference between clustering-forming thresholds (CFT) and
cluster-wise p value (CWP)? Whether the clustering-forming thresholds is
set to the p map from the permutation test? Then how the CWP is calculated?
3. In the paper ''False positive rates in surface-based anatomical
analysis, you suggested ''For surface area, one would need CFT 0.001 and
FWHM>10 mm". Whether I could understand this as "the bigger smooth kernel
the better"? The default smooth kernel in FSFAST is 5mm, which one should I
use?
4. For the quality assurance in 'tkregister-sess', if I can use the QA
value as a exclude criteria during analysis? If so is there any reference I
can cite?
Looking forward to your kind suggestions.
Best regards,
Lizhi
