Hi Tim,

There is no established criterion and a recent, useful guideline is perhaps use the threshold that would correspond to a p=0.001, that is, about 3.1 in a z-map (see Woo et al., Neuroimage, 2014 http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2013.12.058).

All the best,

Anderson

Freesurfer Experts,

I am currently using a Monte Carlo Z-Simulation to perform multiple comparisons on a data set. I have played around with various cluster forming threshold and cluster wise thresholds. I have no idea what would be considered "too liberal" or "too conservative" of thresholds and I have not found much literature that decimates this either. Are there any general best practices I should follow when determining these thresholds?

Respectfully,

-Tim
