We propose a compartmentalized series of analyses that a priori selects regions of voxels that have different degrees of predicted involvement. Alpha thresholds are allocated based on the strength of expected theoretical relationships. For example, confirmatory studies might allocate most of the error to the regions predicted from the literature and thus use a relatively more liberal threshold on these voxels. Simulations reveal that this technique increases power for hypothesized regions, while maintaining a constant false-positive rate and allowing exploratory analysis.<br/> </p><p>PMID: 28285552 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]</p> en-us Copyright 2000-2026 NITRC OSI Wed, 06 May 2026 13:49:09 GMT http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss NITRC RSS generator
