Haskins fMRI Workshop Part II: Single Subject Analysis - Event & Block Designs
2
Analysis Strategy Overview 1)“massively univariate” approach 2)two-stage analysis: a)single-subject regression on time-course data b)across-subject t-test on subject effects c)why? simpler...
3
Block & Event-Related Designs Block designs 1)task or condition alternates at ~20 second intervals 2)analysis looks for differences in the mean response level across the entire block Event-related designs 1)random order of stimulus types 2)analysis extracts the simple “evoked” response to each stimulus type; then assesses differences among types
4
Single-subject regression models & contrasts A regression model is run, predicting the activation values as a function of several predictor variables. Some are interesting: 1)block type or event type (experimental conditions)... and several “nuisance” variables, or variables of “no” interest (aka covariates) 1)main effect-off-zero (constant term) 2)run-by-run mean effect 3)time trends - first, second, third order 4)(motion correction parameters?) The goal is to obtain B-weights (regression parameter estimates) for each effect of interest. These are additionally combined using linear contrasts to implement simple “subtraction” analyses and to look for more complicated patterns of activation across tasks (“profile analysis”). condBcontrast weight words18.1+1 lines7.4-1 contrast formula: [+1 * 18.1] + [-1 * 7.4] = 10.7 = “contrast value” =...just another B-weight!

Case Mixing Exp. (design) Subjects get 10 scan runs, each 5:40 long Each run, they see 5 blocks of baseline trials: //*\ or /\\/ and 4 blocks of lexical decision trials: 1 high frequency unmixed case 2 low frequency unmixed case 3 high frequency mixed case 4 low frequency unmixed case charm or cHaRm

Compare & Contrast... Reference Waveform Regression 1) most designs are analyzable 2) stronger power 3) biased when reference <> actual Delta Function Regression 1) some designs not analyzable 2) weaker power 3) unbiased measure of temporal response

Event-related design details... 1)ITIs down to ~2-3 seconds 2)varied ITIs 3)“null” trials (extra long trials) 4)commonly need ~40 trials per condition; > 8 conditions 5)order matters! 6)“stroboscopic” sampling: odds versus even timepoints
