Marko,You are right -- if the correct cluster P-value is larger than the uncorrected cluster P-value, then this is an issue and shouldn't be happening. I misinterpreted the email as the next line asks about peak values.On Tue, Jun 9, 2015 at 9:08 AM, Marko Wilke <[log in to unmask]> wrote:Hi,
but wasn't the question whether uncorrected *cluster-level* p-values can be higher than corrected cluster-level ones? I think the culprit here may be in the ROI/SVC approach, which may mess with the smoothness estimation, depending on how it is done. Perhaps you, Sara, could provide some more details about how you set up your analyses?
Cheers

Hi all,
I have some (supposedly) strange results regarding an ROI analysis
using small volume correction. When looking at cluster-level
statistics the _uncorrected_ p-value is _not significant_ (e.g.,
p=.12), while the FEW _corrected_ p-value is _significant_ (e.g.,
p=.001). Does that make any sense?
Is it more correct to only look at peak-level statistics?
Many many thanks,
Sara
