Experiment DesignCreating CodeWhen creating a stimulus array for a rapid event-related fMRI experiment, you'll need to pseudo-randomize the stimulus order in a way that is compatible for deconvolution analysis. The best way to do this is a program called optseq2. AFNIAFNI is a software package for processing, analyzing, and displaying fMRI data. It is freely available from the NIH. You can find the latest version at http://afni.nimh.nih.gov/afni/download/afni/releases/latest When the file finishes downloading, you will need to double click the file to un-zip the tar file. Drag the newly created folder to the Applications directory. To more easily access the folder, rename it "afni". Set upYou'll need to update your .cshrc file in order to have all the correct paths set when you open terminal. To open your .cshrc file, enter the following command into terminal: open -e ~/.cshrc
UpdatingMany problems can occur if your afni verion is not up to date. To update, first type the following command into terminal: afni -version If your afni version is more than a month old, it's time to update. To update, type: @update.afni.binaries -defaults Finally, after you update you must enter the command rehash
