Hi, all,

I have two quesiotns about clusterwise correction for multiple comparsion.

I run 2 corrections for one same result,and commands are as follows:

a. mri_glmfit-sim --glmdir g2v0.weight --cache 2.0 abs --cwpvalthresh .05 --2spaces

b. mri_glmfit-sim --glmdir g2v0.weight --cache 2.0 pos --cwpvalthresh .05 --2spaces

The only difference is the sign of voxel-wise results.

Question 1 : Should the postive clusters from "abs" be same as the cluster from "pos"? If yes, why cluster size from "pos" are different from postive cluster from "abs" in my case?(see results)

Resluts form a (only positive clusters are listed):

# ClusterNo Max VtxMax Size(mm^2) MNIX MNIY MNIZ CWP CWPLow CWPHi NVtxs Annot

Resluts form b:

# ClusterNo Max VtxMax Size(mm^2) MNIX MNIY MNIZ CWP CWPLow CWPHi NVtxs Annot

Question 2 : Is the simulation from pre-cached independent from my results waiting for being corrected?

Thanks a lot!
