Hello,
When I ran 3dDeconvolve to make the first-level models for my regular analysis, I specified GAM as the response model and specified that the duration of the stimulus was 3 seconds, keeping the other default parameters the same. (So after the .1D timing file, it specifies 'GAM(8.6,.547,3)'.
Now I'm running a context-dependent correlation analysis and have a question about using waver to create the impulse response function. I am wondering if I should modify the impulse response function to mirror what I did with the first analysis, but if so how? The waver help says you can modify the GAM waveform including setting the delay time to # seconds. This doesn't seem analogous to what is happening when you specify a stimulus duration for the GAM waveform in 3dDeconvolve (where the description reads that the GAM function is convolved with a square wave of duration 'd' seconds). Should I modify the GAM waveform in waver and if so how, so that I mirror what I did in my regular analysis?
Thanks!
