Below is an excerpt from SPM-ML

(https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?A2=SPM;72ea5d13.1109)

There is an option for the newest SPM8 releases (>=4010), which enables non-stationarity
correction on the cluster level. Please set in spm_defaults.m:
defaults.stats.rft.nonstat = 1;

However, this option will result in a much longer calculation if you print the results table.
This is maybe also the reason that this option is not set as default.

コントロールAと疾患B、疾患Cという3群がある時、Design Matrixに全部を入れてしまった方がいいのか、
もしくは、コントロールと疾患A、コントロールと疾患Bというように、別々にDesign Matrixを作った方がいいのかという質問です。

これに対し、Cyril Pernetが非常にわかりやすいたとえを使って説明をしています。
ただ、少しだけtypoがあったのでそこを補足して説明します。

2013年9月に、包括脳MRIチュートリアルで、「VBMの観点からのSPMの理解」なる話をさせていただきました。
VBMに限らず、SPMで用いられる一般線形モデル（GLM）の基本をまとめてみました。
SPMユーザには多少はお役に立てる内容かと思いますので、講義の配布資料を公開させていただきます。

Christian Gaser made the following comment on non-stationary correction in SPM8.

Furthermore, SPM8 (release >= 4010) provides a non-stationarity correction, that is based on smoothed RPV-maps, which should be more reliable than the unsmoothed RPV maps in VBM8 or in the NS-toolbox. To enable this function set:

defaults.stats.rft.nonstat = 1;

in spm_defaults. However, this option will result in a much longer calculation if you print the results table.
This is maybe also the reason that this option is not set as default.

I used to write an article, “Run SPM2, SPM5, and SPM8 concurrently.” Though this is a smart way to run different version of SPM, we need to prepare scripts separately. So I came up with another script, called “SPM switcher”. This script brings up a dialog and you can select the version of SPM you want to run.

• Make a directory where you want to save scripts. (e.g. C:\Users\foo\Documents\MATLAB\)
• Add the directory to the path in Matlab. (File -> Set Path -> Add path)
• put spm_rmpath.m in SPM2 and SPM99 directory.

You find this file in SPM5 or SPM8 directory. You can just copy it from SPM5/8 to SPM2/99 directory.

• save switchspm.m in the directory you prepared.
• edit switchspm.m and change “spm_path=’C:\spm\'” according to your circumstance.

Typing switchspm in Matlab command window will bring up a dialog below and you can run different version of SPM easily.

Download switchspm.m (Right click –> Save as)

%switchspm: Run different version of SPM
%This tiny script prompts the dialog which SPM version you want to run.
%Prerequisites
%1. Each version of SPM is supporsed to be located under spm_path.
%2. Please copy spm_rmpath.m from SPM5 or later and put it into SPM99 and
%   SPM2 direcotry. Otherwise, Path removal won't work correctly.
%3. Please change the SPM path according to your environment

%%%Please change the path below according to your environment%%%
spm_path='C:\spm\';
%%%

%The path for each version of SPM
spm99_path=fullfile(spm_path,'spm99');
spm2_path=fullfile(spm_path,'spm2');
spm5_path=fullfile(spm_path,'spm5');
spm8_path=fullfile(spm_path,'spm8');
spm12_path=fullfile(spm_path,'spm12');

str = ['spm99 '; 'spm2  '; 'spm5  '; 'spm8  '; 'spm12'];
spmver = listdlg('PromptString','SPM ver you want to run...',...
                'SelectionMode','single',...
                'ListString',str);

switch spmver
    case 1, %spm99
    % remove spm path
    while true
      try
        spm_rmpath
        catch break;
      end;
    end;
    % add spm99 path
    addpath(spm99_path);
    % run spm99

    end;
