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.
The -stim_times option is discussed at [afni.nimh.nih.gov] (near the bottom). Please read this to see the format for the 'fred' file.
Also, please note that you do not normally encode a stimulus for the baseline -- the program has a baseline model built-in and implicitly assumes that any time point not in the range of a response is just baseline. FMRI does not measure absolute 'activity', just changes in activity.
