    Abstract

    We give a new continuity correction to the P-value for local maxima of a statistical parametric map that bridges the gap between small FWHM, when the Bonferroni correction is accurate, and large FWHM, when random field theory is accurate. The new method, based on discrete local maxima, resulted in P-values that were ~43% lower than the best of Bonferroni or random field theory methods when applied to a typical fMRI data set.
