AFNI Message Board

Dear AFNI users-

We are very pleased to announce that the new AFNI Message Board framework is up! Please join us at:

https://discuss.afni.nimh.nih.gov

Existing user accounts have been migrated, so returning users can login by requesting a password reset. New users can create accounts, as well, through a standard account creation process. Please note that these setup emails might initially go to spam folders (esp. for NIH users!), so please check those locations in the beginning.

The current Message Board discussion threads have been migrated to the new framework. The current Message Board will remain visible, but read-only, for a little while.

Sincerely, AFNI HQ

Is this a single task, or are there multiple tasks/conditions involved? The former case might be tractable, the latter sounds pretty hard.

In the single task case, you could setup your 3dDeconvolve analysis run. Then
analyze the same data repeatedly, adding various levels of the "-stim_times_subtract SS" option, where "SS" is the amount of time (in seconds) to subtract from each input time. You are allowed to use a negative value for "SS"! Then look at each result and see which one is the "best". It might be a little tedious, but it might also work and save the data. It would probably work better if you have a block design rather than a short event-related design.

How much to shift by? Steps of 1 second make sense to me. How far out to go? That depends on how bad you thinks things are! You could run with -9 -8 ... -1 0 1 ... 8 9 (19 cases) , for example.

Good luck!
