Hi experts,
I do a statistic analysis for a task-based fmri with SPM. When seeing the results, I used the software with the Xjview and DPABI Viewer. I found some discrepancy of results between the Xjview and DPABI. when using the Xjview, there is no cluster remained when the FDR was sett at p=0.05 and the enxtended voxels were 10. However there are two clusters remained when the FDR(DPABI) is set the q value=0.05 and the mask is the group mask.
why for this phenomenon? I want to know that is it reliable for the FDR correction in DPABI? I remembered that the Pro Yan said that the FDR in the REST was adopting from the Xjview and Cui. "this report is based on CUI Xu's xjview".
I also want to know the what is the FDR method of DPABI ? If I want to report the results based on the FDR using the DPABI in the paper, how should I to explain it? Maybe, the Xjview FDR is voxel-wise FDR p value.
Another quesetion: why the FDR on DPABI did not to provide the the thresholding T or Z value? I note that the GRF on DPABI have a thresholding T value.
Best Wishes
1. DPABI's FDR is not based
1. DPABI's FDR is not based on Xjview, but this one: https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/statistics/staff/academic-research/nichols/software/fdr/FDR.m. A possibility is DPABI using two-tailed while xjview using one-tailed.
2. Please read more about FDR (e.g., https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/statistics/staff/academic-research/nichols/software/fdr), then you will know why it doesn't need a voxel-wise threshold at first.
