So what I need to do is to run the 1st level FEAT
as usual for the FSL pipeline, and repeat this analysis for FS with the
only difference been to set the "Spatial smoothing FWHM" to zero on the
pre-stats tab of the FEAT GUI?
Also, can you explain if this smoothing on the FEAT GUI is the 3D you
refer to? And how 2D smoothing is accomplished?
Thank you.

The
example_func does not actually get smoothed, so smoothing itself will
not affect the registration. 3D smoothing will smooth values from WM
and CSF into gray and from across sulci into functionally distinct
regions. For this reason we recommend not using 3D smoothing (or doing
2D smoothing on the surface). Unfortunately, this requires two
different analyses.

Hello all, I took the FS course last June at
the OHBM in San Francisco, and am now playing with it to get to know it
better. One of the slides on the talk about FSL-FS integration
mentioned that the input data (from FEAT) for the reg-feat2anat command
should have not been smoothed prior to registering to FS.
Considering that FEAT 1st level analysis has a default of 5mm spatial
smoothing (and that's what I used on my data), it seems
counterintuitive to need to run a 1st level analysis again so the
output files are not spatially smoothed.
So my questions are: 1) having the example_func file spatially smoothed
will necessarily hinder a proper registration to the FS anatomical?; 2)
if so, should I re-run all my FEAT 1st level analysis without smoothing
or is there any other way?
I know this is quite a beginners question, but I could not find the
answers on the FS FAQ or the mailing list archives. I appreciate any
light on this.
