Hi Yuko, it should be performing Gaussian Random Field (GRF) 
cluster-wise correction. Based on the smoothness, the size of the search 
space, and the voxel-wise threshold, it attempts to compute the p-value 
of resulting clusters. The differences between GRF and doing the 
simulation are that GRF runs almost instantly but it can be inaccurate 
at low smoothnesses and low thresholds. It looks like the GRF was not 
implemented until 5.1
