Hi Freesurfer experts,
Qdec does not appear to allow me to automatically extract mean values for significant clusters for each participant, so I have been doing this using command line after running the original analysis in Qdec. However, I have found that there are some differences in the significant clusters between the two. The command line I am using is:
mri_glmfit-sim --glmdir TRSCtrl_Vocab_DODS --cache 2 abs --cwp 0.01
I believe that this should correspond to analysis in Qdec using the preset threshold of 2 and Monte-Carlo Null-Z Simulation value of 2.0 (0.01).
The significant clusters from Qdec are:

Whereas from the command line:

When I view the glmfit clusters in free view they do appear very similar to the ones in Qdec, but there is one less significant clusters and obviously the cluster names are different. Am I using the correct command line to extract this information?
Many thanks,
