By default, FS uses unsigned (ie, two sided) tests. If you have an a priori hypothesis about the sign, then you can use a signed test. When you use a signed test, the p-value is that of the unsigned test divided by two, ie, it is more significant. When you specify a sign for the MC correction,

[Freesurfer] Sign option of Monte Carlo simulation in QDEC

2015-11-27 Thread Karl Liu
Dear experts: In examining QDEC results of a contrast of interest, I noticed the results are mainly in cold color (blue), with only two small clusters in warm color (red). When I proceeded with Monte Carlo simulation, if I chose the abs as the sign option in simulation, then no clusters survive
