I am getting very low Eff and VRFAvg values. Is this an issue/ is common with go/no-go paradigms? If this is an issue, any recommendations for appropriate modifications. A trial in my experiment involves a countdown (duration 2 seconds) followed by the event of interest (0.5 seconds) followed by a blank screen (3.5 seconds). I set dPSD at 0.5 because this number is divisible by both the --tr and trial length (7 seconds).
