[FieldTrip] Source statistic doesn't match grand average difference at all and prior knowledge

          Thanks for your response . It is Within subjects experiments
 design. The result remains same because the design doesn't change . They
are only  just different expression on the source statistic comparing to
sensor statistic on group level on FT tutorial.
       In my data, the cluster randomization picks something funny and
doesn't make sense while  the difference plots  is more informative and
more consistent with the topos. Technically speaking - the cluster
randomization does not test for location , but only if there is a
difference or not - thus the clusters should be interpreted with caution.
 Therefore  ,  I think about trying another statistic method as well
although  cluster randomization is wildly used within donders institute .
 Do you have any suggestion?
                                               Best,
                                               Haiteng
