[FieldTrip] Summary of changes to Fieldtrip?

[Eric Maris]

Dear David,


We are currently working on a consistent way of calculating one- and
two-sided p-values that is valid for all types of statistical tests that can
be performed in Fieldtrip (cluster-based and non-cluster-based permutation
tests, univariate tests, ...). Soon, you can expect a posting from us on the
FT discussion list in which we will inform the users about how FT calculates
the different types of p-values.


Best,

Eric Maris
