Hey David,



Thank you very much for your tip as well as your paper. I printed that and
will read it tomorrow.



Two follow-up questions:

1) So, to not cluster the timepoints/channels, is it enough the change the
‘cfg.correcm’ parameter from ‘cluster’ to ‘no’ and leave the other
parameters unchanged?



2) if cfg.correctm = ‘no’ (and, of course, using cfg.method =
'montecarlo'), are significant values (i.e., ones rather than zeros) in
stat.mask logical matrix already corrected for multiple comparisons? In
other words, can these ‘ones’ in the matrix be considered as statically
significant channel/timepoints between two conditions at a certain critical
value?



Best wishes,



Kamia
