Dear SPM experts,

I'm dealing with some peculiarity with my results and wondering if anyone  
can help me with it.
So, I have two sets of results and their activation pattern is more or less  
similar to each other when I look at it using p<0.001 (uncorrected), k=15.
However, when I compare those two with FDR 0.05, majority of voxels in one  
set still survive, whearas nothing shows up in the other set.
The intact one under FDR has threshold t-value 5.42, whereas the other one  
has Inf t-value. I guess this makes the huge difference, but I'm not really  
sure
why Inf t-value was calculated. In fact, there are many voxels whose  
t-value is greater than 5.42 in the data set that did not survive under FDR  
and I feel like
I'm losing a real activation due to the way how FDR is performed. Then, can  
I use uncorrected p value with a reasonable cluster size that matches the  
threshold
t-value of FDR?
Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
YSL
