Hi,
I am a bit confused about how to properly use the -stim_npr and -iresp options in 3dDeconvolve.
I have an event-related design with 64 trials, each lasting for 8 3 sec TRs.
I have a stimulus function that lasts for 513 volumes, and each trial lasts 8 TRs. So I would like -iresp to output an impulse response function for each voxel that is 8 TRs long.
e.g. 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 ...
In the manual it says that -iresp will output a timeseries that is p+1 in length. So I would think that I would need to set -stim_npr 8. But all of my stimuli are TR-locked in their presentation and I do no have subthreshold TR timepoints.
Do I need to use stim_npr and then 3dTshift ? MUCH CONFUSION! Please help!
Vinny
