RE: The size of components and corresponding p values
Hi Jinwen, 

Welcome! The ordering of the networks won't necessarily be from largest to smallest, but this will usually be the case if more than one significant network is found. 

You are right that that p-values will be smaller for networks that are larger (comprise more connections).

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for your amazing work on NBS.

I am new to this NBS toolbox. Recently I am reading its manual and related article. Now I have this understanding: Assume I have three significant networks and 3 corresponding p-values, then the first network should have the largest size and the lowest p-value. The second network should have the intermediate size and the intermediate p-value. The third network should have the lowest size and the largest p-value. Is this understanding correct?

Best,
Jinwen
