FDR is not a one-side-fits-all kind of thing. It's based on data, and you have to look at your data to decide what threshold you want to use. The way you interpret FDR=.05 would be to ask yourself whether you would change your conclusions if *any* 5% of the voxels you declared active where actually false. If you have a big cluster, then you probably would not worry about it. If you had several small clusters, then you might think twice. doug Sasha Wolosin wrote: Is this something you apply frequently at MGH?

How does the program correct for the problem of multiple comparisons? Is there any way to determine the rate of false positives?
