By default, optseq2 assumes that you want to perform an FIR analysis
where you get an average for each post-stimulus time point so that you
can create a waveform. This is in contrast to assuming the shape to the
hemodyn respnse where you only estimate a single value (the amplitude).

I think you are at the limit of what is possible. You have TR=2 and
Ntp=255 for a total scan time of 510sec. You have 9 event types, each

stimulation and so only 6 sec total left for jitter.

estimation during the optimization. If you are going to assume a shape

I think this is partially a bug in optseq and partially a problem with
your design. You have a total amount of stimulation time =
12*9+13*8+14*8+12*9+13*8+14*8 = 648 sec. Your run lasts 500*2 = 1000
sec, so the total amount of fixation time is 1000-648 = 352 sec. You
have 8*4+9*2 = 50 stimuli,
By using tr=2, delta psd = 2 (ie, --pwdwin 0 20 2), and tnullmax=2, you
are forcing each null to be exactly 0 or 2 sec, and optseq is having a
hard time with such a hard constraint. You can try changing delta psd to 1.

I would have assumed that a more finely spaced schedule would result in
better efficiency scores. Did I

Greetings Freesurfers,
I am using optseq2 for the first time to generate a stimulus order for my
trials and figure out the ideal ITI between trials. I have a few
questions
about how this works.
1. I tried specifying the PSD max as 18 seconds and minimum of 2
seconds.

what do you mean by allowable null intervals? If you mean that there
needs to be a fixed amount of time between two stimuli, then you cannot
use optseq for this. However, you can tell optseq that there are only
two stimuli, which each stimulus is a pair. Then you'd have to go back
and recode
Thanks a lot for your message. It definitely helped me because I really need
optseq but I am not very confident with it.
If I understand correctly, for 10 stim of 1.5 sec and a protocol with a TR of
4s, a correct optseq sequence would be like that:
--ntp 15 --tr 4 --psdwin 0 18 1.5 (or 0.5) --ev
Hello list,
I am new to optseq2 and I would need some help with it.
I have a very long experiment (many stimuli) and on top of that I have a long TR
(4s) because I collect 60 coronal slices covering all the brain.
My stimuli are quite short 1.5s or 2.5s but according to optseq the stimuli
Hi Giorgio,
There are some refs at the end of the --help.

Hi,
I have a question regarding programming fMRI experiments. I am programming a
source memory experiment and would like to do ROC modeling with the data.
Therefore, I would need to record two responses from participants in each test
trial (i.e., Red, Blue, New; and 1, 2, 3). I am wondering if
Hi Christie,
I can't comment on whether getting the two responses is the right way
to go, but it sounds like you've run optseq properly.
