[FieldTrip] Granger Causality & ft_timelockstatistics

Hi all,


I'm currently using ft_timelockstatistics to compute the group-level statistical difference between 2 granger causality spectra (I'm substituting freq for time data).


My question is whether my current cfg settings for ft_timelockstatistics (see code below) will cluster my data over time? I assume by selecting cfg.avgovertime = 'no' FT_STATISTICS_MONTECARLO will cluster over time rather than space.. but I just wanted to double check...


Many thanks,

cfg = [];

cfg.clusteralpha = 0.05;

cfg.numrandomization = 1000;

Nsub = numel(grandavgA);
cfg.design(1,1:2*Nsub)  = [ones(1,Nsub) 2*ones(1,Nsub)];
cfg.design(2,1:2*Nsub)  = [1:Nsub 1:Nsub];
cfg.ivar                = 1; % the 1st row in cfg.design contains the independent variable
cfg.uvar                = 2; % the 2nd row in cfg.design contains the subject number

stat = ft_timelockstatistics(cfg,grandavgB{:},grandavgA{:});

figure; plot(stat.stat); xlabel('Freq (Hz)'); ylabel('t-value');
figure; plot(stat.prob);xlabel('Freq (Hz)'); ylabel('p-value');
