Hi Freesurfer experts. Does mri_glmfit-sim Monte-Carlo cluster size correction is also usable for F-test? The doc says that it synthesizes a z map (I assume from a normal distribution) for computing the voxel-wise thresholds and cluster size distribution. Maybe I am wrong with my stats but I wonder if it is ok to use this null-hypothesis to a F-distributed data such as results from a F-test. Thanks!
In theory it is because the F can be converted to a p which can be converted into a pseudo-z. When you run mri_glmfit-sim, you should make sure to use an unsigned test ("abs")
