Hi,
I've read the recent messages about the thresholding.
Suppose I've got a patient with an activation quite close to a tumour
that needs to be surgically removed, and the surgeon would like to cause
as little damage as possible.
I was wandering: would it make at all sense to do FWE with p<1? I will
surely have all the false positives, but it might be the safest option.
Also, what does exactly means FWE with p=1? That no matter how many
times I repeat the analysis I will always get for sure one voxel that is
a false positive? Or would I get a lot of false positives?
Or would it be better to use FDR with p<0.05 or p<0.1?
For "better" I think I mean: what is the best way to have a lot of
sensitivity without risking of having false positives everywhere?
Best,
Laura
