Dear All:

I have two questions.

1. Are there any difference in algorithms used for corrections for multiple comparisons between SPM5 and SPM2? My impression is that SPM5 is more restrict than SPM2. For example, if I used height threshold p < .01, a cluster of 100 voxels usually can survive correction in SPM2, but SPM5 needs about 250 voxels. 

2. Is it reasonable to use AlphaSim from AFNI to decide cluster size? I noticed that AlphaSim needs much smaller clusters to survive correction relative to SPM5. 

Best Regards

Jiansong
