[caret-users] Q) what's the difference among column, average area, and user for threshold adjustment?

Many thanks for the help, Donna, but here are my two more dumb questions.
I'm trying to project a group-T map generated by SPM onto the 
Human.PALS_B12.BOTH.TEMPLATE-for-fMRI-MAPPING.73730 file.
Is it the case of multi-fiducial mapping? Also, once the SPM T image is 
project on to the Human.PALS... template, does each column contain T-value
in each voxel? Not sure how column is different from the basic unit, 
voxel, in caret.
Sorry to bug you by casting dumb questions, but again your help would be 
appreciated.

Thanks,
YSL
