Hi Anderson,Do you mean setting it up in the FEAT gui? I haven't been doing that because the FEAT gui freezes when I try to enter this model, because it has so many EVs. Is there a way to use an .fsf file without having to open the GUI to enter my design? Can I use a .fsf file to only perform cluster thresholding on the f-test files?Thanks!M--On Wed, Dec 7, 2016 at 2:55 AM, Anderson M.

That said, if you'll use the random field theory for inference, it might be much simpler and less error-prone to simply use FEAT. It does everything for you and you don't have to worry about these commands.All the best,AndersonOn 6 December 2016 at 21:33, Michelle VanTieghem <[log in to unmask]> wrote:Hi Anderson,
Ok great thanks. I have run the f-tests. Now I would like to use smoothest and cluster in order to identify significant clusters of activation for F4, the Group x Emotion interaction. However, cluster, as far as I can tell from the information on FSL wiki, is used with zstat files.
Can I do the same exact thing, but replace zstat files (of a specific contrast) with the fstat files (to test the omnibus interaction)?
When testing F-tests in cluster, does make sense to use a t- threshold (e.g. 3.1)?
I would think there should be F threshold, but that doesn't appear to be an option in cluster....
Here is an example of what I would like to do:
smoothest -d 134 -r res4d.nii.gz -m mask.nii.gz >> cluster_correction/smoothness_output_wholebrain_mask.txt
fslmaths fstat4.nii.gz -mas mask.nii.gz cluster_correction/fstat4_mask.nii.gz
cluster -i fstat4_mask.nii.gz -t 3.1 -o fstat4_clusters_3.1 -d 0.043 --volume=234781 -p .05 --othresh=fstat4_thresh_3.1.nii.gz > cluster_info_wholebrain_3.1_fs tat4.txt
I appreciate any input!
Thank you,
Michelle
