How to describe the threshold of the result
Hi all,

I have performed the seed-to-voxel FC analysis by CONN 17a recently. I have attached the result. I want to confirm whether the threhold I described was corrected and included all the informatin it should have. It goes as "Results were thresholded at voxel level p < 0.001 (uncorrected) and at cluster level p < 0.05 (FDR corrected)". If I'm wrong what it should be?

Based on the threshold I decribed above, the reviewer said that it should be described as "Results were thresholded at voxel level p<.001 and then corrected for whole-brain comparisons by False Discovery Rate (FDR) to q<.05" and asked "Was there then also a small cluster-size threshold applied, in addition to FDR? ". Actuall, it was the cluster-level FDR correcteion not the voxel-level correction.  Does the cluster-level FDR correction should set a cluster-szie based on the voxel-level p < 0.001 uncorrected and how to do that in CONN?  Does the default cluster-size of the p < 0.001 uncorrected at voxel level is zero?  I am confused a little bit.  Any comments are greatlly appreciated. Thank you.

Best, Xiuqin
