You should just set it to the duration of your event. If all your events are of the same duration, then use that duration. If your events are of different durations, then use the average. This is a scaling parameter, so it will have no effect at all on p-values either at the lower or higher lev

Hi FreeSurfer Team, I was wondering if you could provide a bit more clarification on what the "-refeventdur" flag is referring to in the mkanalysis-sess command? The description in the help screen states it should be the "duration (sec) of reference event for scaling." I am unsure what the "refer

It has no influence on the design matrix. It controls a scaling factor so that the beta value (regression coef) will equal to the height of the hemodynamic response when viewed in the raw data. This sounds like it should be simple but it is actually quite tricky. The bottom line is that it is

Hi, I am making an analysis in freesurfer 5.1 using mkanalysis-sess and I am a bit confused about the flag refeventdur. In the help it is said that it should be set to the event duration if the events have similar durations. But I have two conditions with different durations that one lasts for

Hi Maryam, yes, I admit, that is a confusing option. The "events" that the help refers to only apply to task events (not the fixation). In your case, you would just set it to 16 sec. doug On 9/8/11 10:55 PM, Maryam Vaziri Pashkam wrote: Hi, I am making an analysis in freesurfer 5.1 using mka
