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
