Dear Douglas,

Thanks for your explanation. These information are helpful to me.



>I'm not sure what you mean. How can it be a delay if it is after the trial is 
>over?

I’m sorry for I didn’t describe my second question well. I think I can take 
another situation to describe my question.

If I have a experiment that present stimulus until participants response, and I 
know the average RT of this experiment is 1500 ms after pilot test.

In this situation, should I +/- the duration of jitter/null condition in terms 
of the duration of each stimulus?

For example, if a part of sequence Optseq2 output is “ Con1 Null(500 ms) Con2 
Null(1500 ms)”, and one of participants takes 1000 ms to response for Con1.

Should I add 500 ms to the first Null? or I don’t need to anything?

Thanks for your reading.

Best Regards,
Chih-Hao

Hello all,


I'm a new user of Optseq2, and I have 2 questions about optseq2 after 
I got some sequences and read Dale (1999).



I'll be grateful to anyone can provide help.


1.  I'm curious about why optseq2 arranged the order of conditions, 
does anyone can provided some references to me?



Dale (1999) just discussed about mean ISI and fixed/randomizes ISI 
design, I wonder what's the difference if I just keep the duration 
order of null condition (jitter) and randomly present different 
conditions.


It tries a bunch of random orders until it finds one that is optimum in 
terms of efficiency (you can also specifically optimize with respect to 
counter balancing, use the --focb switch; I usually choose 100 for n). 
With jittering (instead of a fixed ISI), you get more temporal 
randomization (ie, differential overlap between adjacent events).



2. This question is about the total duration of experiments. I'm used 
to execute experiments by E-Prime 2.0, and the presentation may delay 
in E-Prime (I know this situation can be deal with "Pre-release"). If 
there's a fixation period (15s) after my trials is over (but 
participants are still scanned), and the delay just affect the 
duration of the fixation period. Should I reduce the duration of 
delayed stimulus in terms of the delayed time? Or I don't need to care 
about the delay, because the key point is the order of conditions and 
null/jitter?


I'm not sure what you mean. How can it be a delay if it is after the 
trial is over?



Thanks for your reading.


Best regards,

Chih-Hao
