Hi Rosaleena, if you already have fisher-z correlations maps, just input them into the SPM 2nd level t-test. Not sure how you got the spmT-maps and why you would want to convert them to correlations though. I suggest you use the dpabi toolbox (http://rfmri.org/dpabi). It will create the maps for you and you can use the statistical analysis tool to run the t-test. greetings David Am Di., 23.
