Hello, 

I want to run a whole brain cortical thickness analysis and I will like to confirm some steps. 
a) for correcting for multiple comparison, I want to use both Monte Carlo and permutations in order to compare the difference. Are these the right commands? 
 Monte Carlo : mri_glmfit-sim --glmdir lh.name.glmdir --sim mc-z 5000 2 mc-z.abs.2 --sm-sign abs --cwp 0.05 --overwrite
 Permutation: mri_glmfit-sim --glmdir lh.name.glmdir --sim perm 5000 2  permcsd --sim-sign abs --cwp 0.05 --perm-resid --overwrite

b) I have 2 groups and a contrast of (1 -1 0 0) representing where group 1> group 2 removing the effect of age. If I correct for multiple comparisons using abs and while visualizing my result the color map for the surviving clusters is blue , this means areas where  group 1 < group 2. If the color map for the surviving clusters is red/yellow, this means areas where group 1> group 2. 

Thank you.  
 
Best, 
Paul
