Hi Jaewon,

You may want to check the contents of the cfg that you used for the call to ft_timelockstatistics. The error suggests that there’s a cfg.inputfile specified. This is not allowed, if you also supply the function with data arguments in the input.

Best wishes,
Jan-Mathijs

Hello,
I was trying clust-based permutation test using fieldtrip and I got no error until here.
I brought EEG data and conducted timelock analysis for each condition, and then conducted permutation test with montecarlo.

After this, however, when I ran the code below,
%% permutation test statistical analysis
[stat] = ft_timelockstatistics(cfg, HH_timelock, HN_timelock, LH_timelock, LN_timelock);

I got some errors as follows:

Error: ft_preamble_loadvar (line 65)
cfg.inputfile should not be used in conjunction with giving input data to this function

Error: ft_preamble (line 83)
evalin('caller', full_cmd);

Error: ft_timelockstatistics (line 70)
ft_preamble loadvar varargin

I could not find the cause of these errors from my code or any solution.
How can I solve this problem?
Please help me...

Best,
Jaewon Oh
