In the attached figures you will see graphs of PSC time series data with the results from the regression analysis (“the ideal model”) as an overlay (blue line) [stimuli are indicated in red]. I would like your advice on two issues I am unsure of. First, in the 3dDeconv analysis, I have censored out time points due to fluctuations in signal from the scanner. However, when I plot the modeled fit, it doesn’t seem to take this in consideration, as it is modeling the time points that were censored. Is the censoring not working? What should I see if these time points are censored? When does the censoring occur? In the first graph, the first 29TRs were censored and in the second graph, about 20TRs towards the end were censored. Secondly, looking at these two graphs, in your opinion do you feel that the model fits the data? Thank you.
