Hi Claudia,

I think that if you want to do non-parametric tests using fieldtrip the
cluster randomization statistics routines would help you a great deal. I
think a lot of people using fieldtrip are using this method. You could have
a look at this site:

http://fieldtrip.fcdonders.nl/tutorial/cluster_permutation_freq

and the paper:

*Eric Maris, Robert Oostenveld, Nonparametric statistical testing of
EEG- and MEG-data, Journal of Neuroscience Methods, Volume 164, Issue
1, 15 August 2007, Pages 177-190, ISSN 0165-0270, DOI:
10.1016/j.jneumeth.2007.03.024.
(http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/B6T04-4NFXDDW-1/2/ebd219fd45cb52bf39c710fe25635040)
Keywords: Nonparametric statistical testing; Hypothesis testing; EEG;
MEG; Multiple comparisons problem*


Also, this mailing list is not a help desk but is read by fellow researchers
also using fieldtrip. And I would like to say that although it sometimes
takes a little while before you get your answer, that is because everybody
is busy and I am impressed and happy with the way everybody on this list is
nice enough to take the time to help eachother!

Best,

Hanneke
